I;ve been out in the garden on such a nice day. The sun is shining and its quite warm really.
GOt some snowdrops from Dad’s garden and bluebells from Rick to put in. Also a cutting of Dad’s Slimmia.
Moved my weeping willow to put the conifer in its place ( still not sure where the willow will go.)
Planted some Sweet pea seeds in a pot and mint.
And cut the grass!
Phew am knackered..will have sore back tomorrow prolly lol..dug Dad’s garden at the back yesterday too!
