OH's family went this afternoon. We had a good weekend with them, despite the cold wet and windy weather. Yesterday we went to Bressingham, have posted photos on the Garden Visits thread. The children loved the carousel and the train rides. We spent several hours there, I was frozen. I left my warmest coat in France as it was a warm day when we travelled.
After they left I caught up with GW and the painting competiton on the BBC on Catch Up. Then we watched The Durrells and Woman in White, so rather a lot of TV.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Glad you had a good weekend with your visitors Lizzie.
Working from home today as I need to supervise the delivery of a lorryload of black gold onto our driveway - enough for a good thick mulch for all the borders and vegetable beds. Thats the bank holiday plans sorted then. Never thought I would get everything ready in time, but this weekend really helped me play catch up......didn’t mind about the cold and drizzle, was just pleased the heavy rain stayed away.
Am now fearful for this predicted frost - worst time of year for us to have one.....too many apples pears, plums and wisteria to lose, and all too large for fleece. Am hoping the rain sticks around to keep the temperatures up.
Good morning. It’s only 5 degrees this morning! It is May tomorrow and I would quite like to be starting to have my morning cuppa outside. Hope you all had a decent weekend, batteries re-charged for another week ahead...
