Been given loads of old tools for my our local seed and plant swap
Bit rusty, but with a bit of effort they should cone up nicely!
Perfect for newbies to gardening!

Saw my Aunt yesterday with hubby 3 (or 4 not sure) and had a really nice afternoon sitting in the garden.I was dreading it as she's normally like a dragon who has lost her HRT but yesterday was really nice................................now I'm scared!

Whilst at the local nursery, I mentioned that the Raspberries plants I bought were rubbish, "yes we now know" said the owner, "go look for some more replacements and pick the best ones out" he said, ended up with more than I had originally bought, customer service.

Lovely peaceful day in the garden all by myself, thanks to England vs Panama (football), and England vs Australia (cricket)

That people like the lovely Doll exist.
I have a look every day so I don’t miss a new Grape or Birthday.
My misery don’t mean I’m ignorant.
Ta all as always.

Finding a red gooseberry bush lurking in the undergrowth, that I had forgotten I had. How do I know its a red one? Because its laden with goosegogs.
Strange how the ones in the open ground that I've been looking after have no gogs but the forgotten ones that have had absolutely no TLC for at least 3 years are covered in fruit.

Lovely afternoon on the boat. Caught tomorrow nights tea. Also saw harbour porpoises and a minke whale , just awesome

I went to Bridlington on the train Tuesday morning and stayed overnight, coming home Wednesday evening. Managed a 20 mile walk the first day, right up to the north side of Flamborough Head (then back again). There was a lot of sea-mist so the views weren't as spectacular as they must be on a clear day, but I may not have got as far to the north if it had been hotter. Had a much more relaxed second day, slowly pottering along the beach looking for fossils. Didn't find anything particularly spectacular, but it was nice to just have a gentle amble. Ended my trip with a lovely paddle after the sun had come out

This was my first seaside trip in about fourteen years. As an adult, I've never really holidayed before (only staying away from home for work-related stuff or to visit friends), but I've had four short trips away (all in the UK) in the past seven months and it's been really nice.

Being told off by my lady, my crime ......browsing the raspberries whilst watering

My first ever blackcurrants are nearly black, beetroot growing nicely, mangetout in flower, pea pods fattening, blackberry getting set for another bumper crop, courgettes should be ready to pick in a couple of days.

Listening to the four year old next door giggling and laughing whist playing in her pool.
