Wednesday was a bit of a damp day and overcast so I spent it inside taking it easy and pottering. Not really sure what I did apart from some knitting and watching Netflix! So not especially productive, but relaxing.
Today I didn't do a lot either to be honest, just had a wander around the garden.
The planters are looking lovely now that they are filling out.
Really pleased with how these have turned out as they looked a bit sparse when I first planted them up in March.
A nice lot of colour on the decking.
This boot was a Christmas gift from my son and daughter in law one Christmas that I finally planted up when I moved here. Loving it.
Flowers in the garden.
Bumble bee busy at work
I am not sure what these two plants are with the big leaves.
This one is going to flower soon so will hopefully give me more clues!
Pond skaters. Not sure what variety they are.
My book doesn't list different species/sexes.
Prince of Wales Combat Vessel sailing past yesterday morning.
Recently finished this book. A nice enjoyable read of times past and the author's childhood in a seaside village in the early 1900s.
I finally got my Pashley bike back today. Unfortunately the bike shop that we took them too are unable to do the repairs to the damage that the removers did to our bikes as apparently the paint sprayers have unfortunately gone out of business due to Covid-19 and they have been unable to find anyone else who will do them. The other bikes will be collected tomorrow.
Fortunately my Pashley was the least damaged, and as long as I keep the damaged areas dry so they don't rust it should be okay.
I took it out for a ride this afternoon. My goodness what hard work it was! I wonder if I will be sore tomorrow. What I thought was relatively flat when walking is a lot steeper when riding a bike.
