Its a sunny morning, but the wind is something else. It was so cold yesterday I put the heating on for a while and it came on this morning, have just turned it off until after supper.
Pillowcases and sheet ironed, had to leave the duvet cover till after lunch, my back told me I had been on my feet long enough, so sit down, take my pill and have a cup of tea!!
DB has been in the garden for his half hour stint, clearing up and putting the garden to bed for the winter. We will soon be digging up and splitting the plants so the weed proof membrane and stones can go down.. I need to mark the plants I am wanting to keep. I can see us having to beg, borrow or steal some large pots. I have a hydrangea I have raised from a cutting, I will overwinter it in the house before potting it on, hopefully it will grow into a nice plant. I may not bring the geraniums in this winter, I raised them from cuttings from the plants I over wintered last back end. They have not been as good as previous years, so may elect for new stock for the big pots. One of the hosta's by the back door is not doing too well either. Its 5 years since I started them off. They were a freebie from Parkers in 2013. I think they could do with getting the stones and a couple of inches of compost taking off and giving a good feed. I will wait till they die back before I scrape the gravel off.
The meat balls in tomato sauce were delicious, I blitzed the sauce with the Bamix to make it nice and smooth. I have enough sauce left for another meal.
Tonight is fish and chips, there is enough jelly left for dessert.
