Decision sort of made. Choice of 2, 1 of which got deoderant mark on! So that's been sponged & hung up in bathroom.
What hadnt realised is that daughter may well be working next week, but doing a twilight shift, so she'll be around most of the day! Still to wrap her pressies. So may call in TC on my way back from w/end to get her & OH a card & probably have lunch & a coffee too. Could always trot into town before I set off though- hmm maybe better perhaps as bound to be murder at TC by the time I'd get there.
Cuppa next whilst daughter watching something on TV. Then 2b Mrs Mop upstairs. J.
Just been out to the greenhouse. Fffffffreezing! The latch for gate, that keeps the hens in an area, was frozen closed so it was a battle getting to it. Just moved a couple of plants in there that I had forgotten I had left out, a penstemon and verbena. I hope they will survive better in there. It is unheated (it was -2.8cin there overnight ) but at least they have shelter.
Off shopping this afternoon, hoping to get all of the present buying finished!
Just been chasing squirrels- well yelling at them from outside. That seems to be the only way to actually get them to leave the garden for a bit to give the birds a chance!
Have abandoned the chilli powder business, just ended up even more messy & our squirrels still ate the food!
I have shut our back gate, should be ok now. See that Nola also got the same problem.Which reminds me-
Nola, if nec throw either a bit of fleece over the plants in greenhouse, or old net curtain. If you get chance wrap the pots too. Some penstemons will come though ok, also the verbena but it does depend on where you are & variety. J.
I have entered todays competition for the garden tools. I'm hoping that at least one of us on this thread wins something! If anyone does, they will have to let us know.
Still cold here, not venturing outside. Not been to the plot for a while now, wonder if its missing me?
Jess's pressie for today - jewellery and chocolate coins!
You have been busy this morning. Has taken me ages to catch up.
Those pictures were memorable, like you Jo reminded me of the 70's. Loved the little fairy in a pool.
Wtached theballet as well. Amazing have sent the link to various folk I know would like it
Temp in green house this morning was -5.5C
Brr was surprised the door opened and not frozen. Need to feed the birds later .
Have been to supermarket and machine declined my card HUH
Phoned bank and they said money has gone through, so now attempting to get throught o management of supermarket to get money back. It was easier to contact the bank

I tried chilli powder, but gave up. You have to use a lot. It isn't worth it.
It's going on my dinner instead.
