Another good day here in WManchester. Ok it clouded over late afternoon, but was still comfortable to sit & watch the birds at the feeders.
My gooseberries have already got a nice lot of fruit & the sawfly grubs have struck!! Have had a good couple of sessions of grub collection & stamping/sqishing this w/end & today. J.
Stockton this has been one glorious week, in fact too hot to do any work in the garden that was not under the umbrella or the shade of the garage door. I have a bench I can move under that to work on. The tan is topping up nicely after all it is well over a year since we saw weather like this.

Another sunny day.
Spent a few hours in the garden this evening, only went out to water the plants.Ended up planting out geraniums and clearing the herb garden of weeds.
Now the visitors have gone the weather's turned cloudy - still at least they had lovely weather whilst they were here.
Forecast cloudy for tomorrow too.
Time for lots more planting!
It's getting warmer here by the day, Friday is forcast the warmest day of the year.
Took the oportunity to sun bath during my lunch hour, went for a walk in the park and then just sat taking in the rays.
The garden pots got a good watering this evening.
Lovely, had to do potting on under sun brolly...eek..eek
Wonderful weather again today
Finished pruning my neglected Victoria plum.
Have a mountain of branches to dump
but at least I can at last see sunlight 
fresh air (although fewer plums)!through the whole tree at last.
Should crop better from now on, as long as it is grateful for what I have done for it!
Tried to post photos but all wrong orientation again.
Try again tomorrow
just realised - am on the wrong thread!

Lovely sunshine up here, too with a gentle breeze.
Glorious sunset.
