Happy Fathers Day!

We have one happy father here! He got 2 lovely pressies, one is a Digital Voice Recorder, for using at the office to make verbal notes on, instaed of scrabbling round for a pen and paper!! The other.....



we had such fun wrapping this, then we had to ask a neighbour to keep it for us as we couldn't hide it anywhere because Kathryn came home!! Meet Henry......



poor Tori still half asleep!



he was made up with this, lets hope it keeps the real heron away!

The Sanguinea brugmansia is getting closer to opening



my large tree fern is beginning to unfurl a new leaf



We have done quite a bit in the garden today, the trelis has gone from the end of the jungle plot, it used to look like this



and so has the hedge at the bottom of the garden



which used to look like this

We are starting to get ready for the new 2nd hand greenhouse!! This hedge had been driving me nuts anyway and should have come out years ago, a russian vine I planted at the end closest to the fence about 18 years ago has just started to take off and take over, so this was another reason to 'get rid'! The tree I hope to leave but I may have to move a few of the shrubs forward, but will leave that till September, in the mean time I can be killing the stumps!!!

Cooking Roast Lamb today, mmmmmmmmm smells delicious, must dash!!!
