    Rain stopped and sun out so filled up the green wheelie bin which has just been emptied.  When the wind has dried the two mountains of prunings still to do I will fill up my containers again with them chopped up small.  We had some heavy showers when i would normally have a duckpond outside the kitchen but my daughter did some maintenance cleaning on the drain to the soakaway in the garden and there was not even a puddle!

    Hey what are daughters for image(only joking), it's still raining very heavy here, I think it's in for the day, my brother has just left so I've now just wrapped my hubbies present as its his birthday on Monday. At least the garden is getting a good feed image

    We had a yellow warning for heavy rain and high winds starting in the wee hours but they have not materialised yet.  I have been out deadheading and it is fine , dry and sunny with hardly a breeze!  Must be the lull before the storm.  Tomorrow is supposed to be a better day but today suitsme fine at the moment.  Hope those who do have high winds escape without damage.
