    Glad you got home safe and sound @Dovefromabove - sounds like you did a good job in your MIL's garden.
    No gardening for me today but I did check how deep the rain penetrated.  As I suspected - not very deep.  And when I looked across to the bed that's got the irises in it, it looked really dry and dusty. No gardening tomorrow either as a couple of meetings to go to. But after that - yay!  Lots to do out there and I suspect watering will be one of the tasks.
    Eating lots of apples at the moment.  We now have four mini apple trees and all bearing good crops.
    Night night all.

  • Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    good to be back in our own bed … slept like logs 😊 
    From the looks of things the builders next door have finished… even if tho NDN texted to say they were rained off on Tuesday. The scaffolding is still up but the roof repairs seem to have been done and the soffits and gutters replaced. I suppose the starlings will be homeless tho’ …. Anyone got any recommendations for hoot starling nestboxes?
