Lovely day here in Bristol. Hubby had a day off today so he cut the grass. Still waiting for the strimmer to be repaired so either got to cut the edges by hand or wait and keep looking at untidy long grass. Strawberries looking good, just need a bit more consistant sunshine to ripen them. Did'nt manage to get anything else done as we went to our favourite garden centre for a little wander and a cup of tea and cake.
Lunchtime in Manchester. Our sun is coming & going, Still am going to sit out with a good book, have put on suncream, hat & insect repellent.
Spent this morning filling the wheely bin with finished Aquilegias, Tellima & unwanted A. Mollis. Made a note to split/move a hardy geranium as just too big for its' position close to a path. Did cut it back too, almost gone over- literally. J.
Another lovely day but rain forecast for tomorrow. Cut back a few rogue brambles that dared to show their faces in my border, but that was it for today. H ave to do some housework sometimes !!
Wonderful day sunshine all day and at least the wind has dropped off, decided not to grass over the borders so what I've done is tidy it all up and my upstairs neighbour has given me some citronella oil so I've put some on my rocket sticks and placed them a foot apart, so watch this space, I shall not be beaten by a b*****y cat.
Two warm sunny days on the trot, the GH needed watering and in the end I watered outside pots.,
Go on my jollies towards the end of next week and typically loads of stuff is looking like it will be ready to pick whilst away. The strawberries and currants were netted this evening in the hope there might be some left when I get back and after the birds have had their fill.
It started to rain a couple of hours ago, as predicted. It is now absolutely chucking it down. Goodness knows what havoc I'll find in the garden tomorrow.
