Hi What a day . I am defo the wispy clouds in a blue sky today. There have been no clouds atall in the sky all day and what makes it so much better is that the forecast was for rain all weekend. I cut all my grass (lots). Planted tatties, sowed peas, carrots and swiss chard in my vegie bit and sowed some annual flowers and shifted things around in my borders. The sun brought out all the tulips that have been looking sad for a week. The star of the garden this week apart from the early Tulips is the Chinodoxa (Glory of the snow) which is lovely against the daffies. Now im sunburned and knackered but i have beer so all is well :D Hope you all had as nice a day as i did. Cloudy
Hi Cloudy, greetings from Forres. Hot and sunny all day - wonderful stuff. I had the man in to top one side of the hedge, I was gofer and did all the clearing up (saved me a few hours of his time) Hot, knackered and happy. Can of lager this evening, too hot for wine, choc is cooling in the fridge :0)
Hi Both of you I laid some slabs, mowed the grass, repotted a standard bay and olive, pottered about in greenhouse....now its uptown for a few bevvies Steve
Found this for you Cloudy S'posed to be 2 cats doing the samba! Loads more here for you! http://www.cloudappreciationsociety.org Had a fab day outside. split my Ophiopogon, Did a weed & feed of back borders. Planted some "babies" (ferns, black leaved birch, feverfew, cape gooseberries, Stipa arundinacea). Contemplated cutting the grass, but was distracted by tinkling of vodka glass Gonna sit & do a border plan now (under the influence of Stolly!!) :rolleyes:
Im seeing a theme here. Do you think that gardening and alcohol have to go together? At least it dulls the sting of the sunburn .
dripping sweat oils the secateurs, oh I love to be hot :0) I prefer my alcohol after gardening, I like my fingers to stay where they are
