After a nice lunch out with friends and a very large glass of Pinot (sad mistake, I don't know what came over me!) all I was capable of doing was refilling the bird feeders and pulling up a few weeds, after which I thought I was safer indoors!!
Cut a load of wood with chain saw this morning for 🔥 O/H cut asparagus down at home and I did a bit of dead heading and dug some self seeded plants up in the wrong place
Am going to have to check tomorrow that all the tender plants I want to keep are put in the greenhouse , as it gives the chance of frost next week here.
Got all the greenhouse floor swept, and mouldy bits out. While moving tubs found the frog that has been in there all summer. It's a big one now. Must have eaten well.😁 I don't bubble wrap my greenhouse @GWRS ,the plants either survive or not, but did manage to keep fuchsia, gazania, and white geranium going from last year. Also overwinter a clematis in there.
OH dug up an old rose for me which we binned. Just got to dig out and replace the soil ready for the new rose. I also dug up some perennials that were struggling and potted them up pending a decision as to where to replant them. One is a rather special Russian Sage, bright blue flower spikes and big leaves like a foxglove. It was beginning to make a land grab towards the lawn so I took fright! Not sure what to do with it now though, although the bees loved it.

Laid the upturned turf I’d dug up last week, and disturbed two toads! 🙁
Successfully moved them over to the turf stack at the back of the garden via spade 👍
Quickly mowed half the lawn with an uncharged battery before it died, sun had disappeared anyway 🙂

Can’t make my mind up whether to “bubble rap “ g/h or not
