Rain stopped booting!

No boot sale today as it had rained in the night and was still raining this morning. Cold and windy too! It eventually cleared up late afternoon. So went with Darren to have breakfast at Lily’s instead. It was really cold and rough by the sea, took a quick pic as we came out as I wasn’t about to hang around!
I went down the garden to see if the sunflowers had survived their rude introduction to the big outside, and a couple were leaning over a bit but on the whole they seem okay. Being well watered in is a good thing.
I moved the rest of the plants out of the greenhouse to get some natural watering.
After lunch, despite the rain I assembled the garden spinner that Jean bought me and put it out in the garden.
I wrote some letters and got some washing done before getting dinner and then, a the rain had cleared, went out to add some compost to the tubs outside and put a couple of pansies in each of them. Getting ready for action.
No obvious different, but hopefully the pansies will soon have lots of blooms.
Really looking forward to the second series of The Piano, real feel good tv.

  1. Definitely not booting weather. It’s been miserable all day here, so I didn’t go out at all. Made a change though. At least you got out for your breakfast and to see the sea. Although not much to look at today.
    I’m pleased the sunflowers survived. At least they had a good soaking, so maybe that’ll encourage them to grow strong and tall 😊
    I like the garden spinner. Is it one that makes a noise, or does it spin silently?
    I know you did a bit in the garden, but not such a strenuous day today. That’s good. The front lawn is looking good by the way.
    I hope your program was good.

  2. A new day and sunshine at the moment! Hopefully the garden isn’t too wet to get anything done.
    The program was great and the concert at the end of the series will raise money to put pianos on more stations round rhe country.
