Another reasonably quiet day but Tina started using an app to sell your unwanted books, it required scanning bar codes, not something I do. But I downloaded the iPad app and I actually managed to get some scanned and they are ready to be taken to the drop off place. They buy cds and dvds as well so may have another go!
After Ringtons had been Tina and I went out for lunch at Mappleton which was very nice.
When we went out I spotted this plant had grown in the gravel along with other weeds, very delicate.
I went out to check the bird baths and the plants in the greenhouse. The bath tub plants are still beautiful.I don’t remember this tree going brown before, it still looks attractive but I hope it doesn’t men it is dead!
When iwas looking for books I found this leaf that I had pressed. That is a £2 coin!Will finish with my pretty little bracelet that Isobel made with beads that I bought her.





I assume you know what they are going to give you for the books before you box them up, or do you have to wait for them to inspect them? Sound a good idea, especially if there’s a drop off place and no postage. It’s like car booting for lazy people ๐
ReplyDeleteIt’s always good when you get out for lunch, and I know you like Mappleton, so that’s even better.
The bath tub planter does still look very nice. A definite success that one. Maybe the tree is just being autumny. I know that’s not a word but it’s descriptive ๐
That’s a big old leaf! Did you dry it for a specific use, or just because you could? It would look nice framed.
That’s a lovely little bracelet, and special too. She’s got better eyes than me if she can thread them ๐
The app reads the barcode and tells you what they will pay for it. Also tells you if they don’t want to buy it, all very clever!
ReplyDeleteI can’t remember why I pressed that leaf, it is very fragile.
Yes the plant may be autumny but I thought it was an evergreen!
They are very tiny beds in the bracelet.
