GARDENING AGAIN

Went to the garden centre pickedd up  some plants we phoned the order in and collected in the afternoon  , Helen picked up her meds from the doctors pharmacy  which was just down the road. We then went over to see my daughter's which was about a thirty minute drive she stood in her doorway we stayed in the garden well away , she looked well I took her some strawberry and kiwi cider and some cloudy apple cider , bless her seeing her was great not hugging her hard , but we stayed apart just in case , one day hopefully we will hug again roll on that day .

Ordered a electric chain saw of eBay it came today  , I have a few 250 x 125 timbers to cut they are going to border the garden edges next to the fence panels  to form raised beds , simple enough I just need the correct tools to do the job my hand saw not good enough to cross cut these timbers  hopefully problem solved .

THURSDAY - Helen bought six bags of top soils and four bags of compost from the garden centre second trip in two days , whilst we was out I manage to get some more food for the dogs and some pasta strips to do a oven baked lasagne .

Bought a 1800 vegetable trug for Helen along with a canopy and liner and cover.

FRIDAY - Went to B&Q bought some hand basin and bath taps we bought some earlier in the year but never got them for throughout the house now we have enough taps to change every tap in the home , also bought a new hand saw that rips instead of cross cut  and two tape measures a 8m and a 5m  , I also bought a new Hozelock extendable swivel hose arm  , and a square shaped barbecue I also bought two boxes of  fire lighters and a large bag of charcoal we also tried to get two garden loungers but  all was sold out .for the front and back of the hose we bought two gothic style  black carriage lanterns we have nothing at the moment the electric bulbs for them was £9 each , scandalous.

SATURDAY - Back to the garden centre picked up another six bags of 100 litres of compost and some more out door solar bulbs to go on the pergola I have hung two hanging baskets on to the front .
