where did summer go?

This week saw our first frosts. And I didn’t have the greenhouse heater on, but I think everything has survived. Spent yesterday morning in the garden. The fuchias and geraniums have been lifted, the bedding plants have been ripped out & I’m ready to start on phase 2 of the garden. Almost. Unfortunately the damn house still need stuff doing. Like a bathroom. Well, there is some progress. It now has ceilings & walls and most of a floor. I painted the ceiling this morning. And, without realising, much of my face. So when I came to the office the security guard had a good laugh at me. Anyway, I aim to fit the new ceiling lights this afternoon. And assuming I survive electrocution I can then go to the pub & watch England get spanked by the All Blacks. Yesterday saw Wales and Australia provide a feast of exciting rugby in a 29 all tie. Unfortunately I don’t see today’s match being quite as good.
