    Morning to all: Such a warm morning and no breeze this morning. Oh,dear! I'm dreading it.

    Lovely garden,@fat controller When I have a new house, every bit will be used for plants. No more lawn.. Or maybe ..

                    Morning all :)

                    @shiney - bless him, I am surprised he was still standing by that time of the day as he followed me about all day, and whilst I was digging and weeding he was intent on mousing (for non-existent mice, that are actually just the wind blowing plants about :biggrin: - he is cute, but not the brightest star in the sky at times.

                    Dump run today, followed by a Costco run, and then maybe have another go at getting the rest of the edging in, but that will be about it I think as it is going to be too hot for a start, and I have knocked myself silly over the past two days.

                    Hope you all have a lovely day :spinning:

                          29º at the moment......... pure torture. I have just been out in the garden a wee while reinforcing the bird feeder stand to make sure it will cope with Mrs C's new three tub bird feeder, and I am wilting.
