My daughter has just dropped off - at a safe distance- a box of lovely fresh veg from a local firm. I’m really impressed. In it are
1 avocado
4 bananas
1 swede
1 pineapple
2 brown onions
1 red onion
1 orange
2 satsumas
1 red and 1 green pepper
1 red and 1 green apple
1 huge lemon
2limes
1 white cabbage
1 cauliflower
1 leek
1x 500g broccoli
3 salad tomatoes
2 parsnips
1 punnet of strawberries
1 punnet of raspberries
1punnet of red grapes
1 pear and another apple
3 plums
6 medium potatoes
1 lettuce
1 cucumber
The freshness and quality are very good and I am thrilled to have received this box of healthy food. It cost £20 and I’m happy with that.

Forgetting everything and watching the Bee Gees in concert for two hours. 9pm-11pm. Fabulous.

Being alive and in good health. Money can't buy those gifts.

A lovely day doing gardening (well, until it rained at 3.30) and a very nice fruit and veg box delivered!

Ooh that looks lovely!
Today, one of "my" ladies was very happy, so that made me happy, but coming home made me happier.

Yesterday I was shopping for essentials in Sainsbury and I saw a lovely white duvet cover with embroidered butterflies and lace edging. Ok non essential I suppose but I bought it. It looks lovely and I am sure I had a better nights sleep last night because of it. (My cat likes it too he immediately went to sleep on it with that sense of entitlement that cats have.

I’m not working (from home, but still tied to my laptop) so Ive got a whole weekend to do what I want with. Bliss!

Believe it or not, the rain! The garden was bone dry and weeding was difficult, our soil is clay and as hard as nails so weeding has been really dificult - and last years autumn clear out is still not complete. Meanwhile all the seeds and new plantings await a good natural dowsing.

Now everything is soaked, te earth is soft so getting the last weeds out will be easier and the seeds will start to geminate.

As I’m going for a long walk every day, ordered some new trainers from New Look - cheered me up when they arrived smile
