    Morning all. Hope everyone is having a good weekend. FB I hope you are feeling OK. Good to hear the positive prediction, Pat.

    Fanbloomintastic day in the garden yesterday. Woke up with a migraine this morning though. The magic pills are working, thank goodness, so I'm just emerging from it now. More gardening today - bit of attempted lawn repair, mainly, plus a lot of pootling. And might go and visit a college friend who has a new job in a community garden. ttfn.

    Hello all!  Gorgeous gardening weather here too.  Lots done in the past couple of days... I'm so pleased I'm in good company, @Dovefromabove , in being behind with mulching.  I'm having to water before spreading compost...

    Have a lovely day everyone!   :)

    @Liriodendron SNAP!  I’ve had the sprinkler on the sunny bed this morning while I’ve been making pastry for the pasties ... I’ll go out and get the last of the weeds in a little while then mulch.

    Hi all.
    Beautiful here.
    Breakfast has been taken outside this morning.
    Moira has decided she would like to help again today, so tasks have been allocated.

    The lowest temp will be 9c that’s as far as my app goes.

    I’ve come inside to find some shade and a cool drink ...it’s 25+ in the shade out there ... I’m not designed for this 🏖 

    But they say it’s going to go down to 4C overnight on Sunday  🥶

    Hot here too, no shade, we are in for drinks, Roland wants a sandwich, oops! No bread out of the freezer.  Won’t take long to defrost. I’ve put it on the windowsill.

    supposed to be pricking out again, too hot in the GH I’ve put up reflective bubble wrap.
