Visit and garden

This morning I went to get the lunch as usual and then searched for a charging cable for the watch as I did get an answer from the supplier and they do not sell separate cables. I think I found the right one, will find out tomorrow. Then I will probably find the missing ones!
I went to visit Bel, who is feeling her age but other than that was in fairly good spirits.
I went out in the garden, decided it was time to make an attempt at clerk g the front bed that the public see. It was getting very scruffy and also dying through lack of water. I planned to water out the front when there are less weeds. I had strimmed the oath a bit before taking the photo.
It doesn’t appear too bad but I managed to fill the garden cart to the brim!
I had some lunch and then went out with a couple of cans of very hot salt water to try and kill the weeds in the gravel. Then I did some more strimming, there were some people sitting on our wall chatting to another person, as I got close I just have been drowning their conversation but they just kept sitting so I moved somewhere else until they moved!
This year I have two tamarix trees that have a lot of blossom which will be looking like feathers in the next few days, the first shot actually turned out to be a great shot of the house.
Before I went in for a break I checked the fitting and then move the hose reel out to the front garden ready to water later.
Daren and Tina actually both had the day off so they went for a trip to Withernsea. Tina spotted the cutest pair of earrings for me.
After tea I watered the bonsais with the watering cans and then gave the front green a good watering. I reeled the hose back in but left it in the front garden, I will water both gardens tomorrow evening,

  1. I do hope the cable is the right one, but as you say it’s bound to turn up as soon as the new one arrives anyway 🙂
    You’ve been way too busy in the garden for such a hot day! It does look better though, and the pic of the house through the tamarix , with the lines in the lawn and the blue sky looks brilliant. You should print and hang it.
    I wouldn’t have moved for the wall people. I’d have sprayed them with debris from the strimmer and said “I’m so sorry” 😂 Cheeky beggars.
    I saw the forecast earlier and the hot weather will be around for a few more days. So lots of watering for you I would think.
    Love the earrings. The bank ladies will definitely spot them 🙂

  2. Even hotter today I think so won’t go out there for too long!
    Funny how photos turn out sometimes, if I was planning to take a nice shot of the house I would never have thought of taking it from there.
    As you say, the watering is still on the menu for a few days.
    I will wear the earrings tomorrow when I go to the banking hub.
