.Last day of May and it felt like it..

Yes it was shorts, suntop and flipflops in the garden today and oh boy!!! it felt so good (very hot on our patio) okay I know strictly speaking that the elf/safety gnomes would have a field day but I did wear my gardening shoes whilst using the strimmer and the mower so not as daft as it sounds.. I’ve started removing the leaves from the spring bulbs, making room for my summer planting, that usually means that if I find a gap then I will soon fill it back up, the more plants I have means less space for weeds..


Another smiling face enjoying the sunshine and her tootsies are free as well…..

Here’s hoping for another sunny weekend folks, enjoy your gardening…

I was out struggling to get my lawn to standard, raking off the old grass, and mowing with my push mower. I still have the weakness in my lumbar area, can only work for 2 hours. Didnt realise until I got this Virus 16 weeks ago how this area controls the whole strength of the body.
So enjoy your good health Goyers, and keep off community transport if at all possible because thats where I caught it.
The little dog was luckier at the Vets then me, as had anti-Biotics which wont treat a Virus.

Hello Hywel hope you are ok, a day of sunshine makes all the difference doesn't it, lol...
Hi Fran nice to see you, its Diane who has the virus not me, I have a gammy knee which I'm trying to ignore but think its gonna be a trip to the doc otherwise it'll spoil my hols which are only a month away, doing well as regards water, the heavens keep topping up for us, in fact my bottom pond overflowed twice in the last couple of weeks...lol..

Hello Snoop I did acknowledge you the other day but not sure what was going on as my comments disappeared, I can remember dad having a hoe like yours and must admit it was easier to use than mine, I am still removing dandelions as soon as I spot them, lol...

Olive things are definitely improving, not warm enough for my shorts but still lovely sunshine, the roses are coming out now as well so I'M A HAPPY BUNNY...
Hi Gadgit, they were like us and needing the sunshine, I'm now having problems offloading my plants, I'm planting up anything I can find.
Wildrose I've been out all day again, I did cook dinner and feed the pets, all other jobs are on hold while the sun shines. I love my little fairy, she is always happy.....

Diane I've decided I'm going tomorrow as its not getting any better and to be honest its getting me down now, I'm sorry to hear you are still suffering, some of these virus's are the biddy devil to get rid of...

Stroller I'm a happy bunny when the sun shines on me, my knee is really annoying me now, I've no patience with myself when something is wrong, tried working it off but gotta bite the bullet and get docs opinion now....
