Sunshine and Blooms...

Beautiful sunshiney day today, we took ourselves off to the Garden centre this morning to get some stuff for the garden. We needed things for the hanging basket at the front, and some plants for various pots at the back.
VT picked up a lovely wicker hanging basket from a cheap shop in maghull, and it is crying out for some good plants. I got two really nice fuschia plants from M&S the other day to go in the middle so we wanted things to go round the edges to trail over.
Spent £28 on trays of bedding plants, then VT offered to buy us a cup of coffee in the cafe, so we had that. Lovely too. Then we had another look. He bought a catmint plant which Bobby has all but destroyed, and I got a really nice lavender bush, and a beautifuyl herb basket with a load of different herbs in it. Very decorative. Spent about another £17 ..Good job I get paid again in a few days time...
VT planted the hanging baskets this afternoon, but it was very hot and bright outside. He has sprayed his jacket, and is now going to try and get the fountain going again...what a busy little beaver eh!!!
Tonight we are having:
Stirfry cabbage and leek mixture,
Sausages,
Potatoes sauteed.
