Good morning from a clear Bristol.
I had a busy day. I got some bedding plants at Tesco when I did my shopping. After storing it, I went outside and tried to dig the bed, recently and unexpectedly cleared by the cut ting back of the Choisya. The(borrowed)fork wouldn’t go in further than about 8”, the result of over 30 years neglect and builders’ rubbish…. As it faces NNW, the sun doesn’t get there before mid-afternoon. I allowed it to dry a bit.
After my WI meeting, I went back. Half emptied two of my pots, putting the spent compost on the bed, I dug it in and planted it out. It’s already looking great. More watering today, before the predicted rain tomorrow/Thursday…
I’ve got tomatoes in two pots, and plant to put in a runner bean in the penultimate and a courgette in the last one.
Fabric Shopping today and my first PCC meeting this evening.
Best wishes to all who are struggling. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good Morning Everyone,
A dry but signs of overnight rain here in brackley with grey overcast sky .
Plans for today other than usual bus trip to Bicester , and watching to Giro on Eurosport later .
Had some good news in appointments my visual fields test date as changed , but it collides with telephone appointment with the colonial nursing team , which I can rearrange as i rely on buses I would be travelling to the field test when I would have got the phone call appointment .
Take Care,
Mick
