Two clay pots had been discovered on the boot sale final Saturday they usually had been my solely spend (£1) on a day when there have been extra folks promoting than anytime this season to date. Simply nothing a lot wanted. I picked up three Beswick Birds like my Blue Tit and Wren, one was a robin however he had a chipped beak, one was speculated to be a gray wagtail however did not actually appear to be one and had a chipped tail and the third was a a lot bigger pheasant however he’d been badly broken and repaired much more badly so all three had been left behind and I by no means wished a Beswick Chook assortment anyway!
I may have purchased extra toys for grandchildren, a ton of craft stuff, a field of Christmas crackers and a great deal of Christmas playing cards however do not want any of them. Boot gross sales now appear to be extra concerning the issues I do not purchase! Oh, and somebody had the total set of the Nation Diary of an Edwardian Woman Months of the 12 months plates – I would not seen any since I obtained my set two years in the past.
I potted my two current purchases – a trailing ivy and a vibrant inexperienced sedum into the clay pots and added them to the plant stand. It is was 2021 when I discovered it at a boot sale and now trying as if it should quickly want a brand new coat of paint. Ever because it blew over I’ve had it on this spot the place it’s tied to the trellis.
It seems to be higher in actual life than any {photograph} I’ve tried to take.
My tomato seedlings within the greenhouse have been potted on once more because the warmish climate over final weekend meant they’d a development spurt. I do know BiL wished a few my vegetation to develop one thing totally different from these he will get from a good friend. Could not bear in mind if he wished the large Massive Mama or the tiny Sungrape so I potted up all 6 of every.
Many of the bushes have all of a sudden greened up this week with a bit of heat on the finish of the week – I must get extra seedlings into larger pots and the climbing French beans exterior with a way of defending them if we get a spell of chilly. Jobs for the weekend I believe.
Yesterday I had MGS and YGD right here as DiL had a faculty PD day, they had been in grumpy finish of college vacation temper – there have been tears – which is sort of uncommon and that is my excuse for not replying to feedback but once more – plus I am studying plenty of good library books too.
Thanks for birthday needs – it is not fairly but! Though I did have some playing cards and a gift already – thanks Ang, a stunning shock – it was unwrapped by the grandchildren – they had been very puzzled!
Have a very good weekend – I shall be again Monday
