A beautiful day today...still a little touch of chill in the breeze this morning, but then it myst have been 10 degrees or so warmer by this afternoon!!
Shallots were planted in pots in the greenhouse, a small bed weeded....aand lunch was al fresco on the garden bench!
The Daisies were blooming in the grass....first time this year..it must really. be spring!!
Oops....not sure what I've done!!!
I took my car down the hill first thing for its annual MoT test of fitness ...and it passed well. I'd only done a little over 6,000 miles since last year, so I went to the NFU Mutual office at the mart to sort the insurance.
I was in the up to 20k miles bracket...so brought it down to 8k to give me some leeway...and saved £28 per year...not a lot, but every little helps.
As it was near I went to the garden centre for my "free" hot drink...as a member...which has just risen to £15 p.a....you get two free drinks a month. Which made sense when we did call by often....and 10% off plants and seeds looks good until you see the prices!
So I went to the family garden centre near home and got 4 bags of topsoil and a bag of potting grit. Not something you can do without a car!!
A funny note...no plum tomatoes..seeds or plants!!
As it was still warm and dry and I have a tub of fence paint...the outside of the back fence was painted....exercise and fresh air!!
