 Odd weather this week. Cold sometimes then mild  then wet  sometimes, then everything all at once. Floods have gone off the roads but I called in at Brother-in-Laws to see how he is drying out and it’s going to take a while for the concrete floor of his kitchen, bathroom and utility room to dry, and he’ll need new flooring and new kick boards for all the base cupboards.

We got back to the Keep Moving Group after the two weeks off due to the village hall having work done and the W.I that I go to has started a Reading Group that any members could attend, they had one before but met in peoples houses which was limited to six people which didn’t seem fair. Now it’s going to meet in the church community room with plenty of room for anyone who wants to go and they are doing  the same with a scrabble/games group ( I really do need to move back to that village!). So I went. We’re not always going to all read the same book, which I’m glad about as I have enough library books without too many extras.

There’s still some colour in the garden with  a few late roses – slightly rain damaged.

And this vine thing which I am forever cutting back

I’ve got lots of baby water snails in the mini sink pond – really teeny things, too small to see

And the tiger grass has ‘flowered’.

After my post about washing all the big greenhouse pots there was a good comment from an anon about getting jobs done in the garden……….. to paraphrase –  “my spring self will be pleased at what my autumn self got done” which is so very, very true.

But at the moment my Autumn self is just fed up with the boiler which decided to stop working for heating again one evening and then the next day the heating came on again but not when it should have done and weirdly I still had hot water all the time. It did this a few weeks ago too, that was before the issue with the low pressure which I could fix. Nothing looks wrong on the boiler so I’ll have to call the heating man.

Have a good weekend. I’m waiting to see what the weather is like before I decide. Although car boot sales are now all finished due to the rain last weekend so that’s something I won’t be doing.

And it’s clock change weekend – UGH….. Embrace it – don’t hate it! – I’ll try.

Back Monday
