Fences!!!

Watching the proceedings...
Vin's fence panels arrived this morning, and they are really nice actually. He has beenmost of the afternoon erecting them and has made a good job of them too. The old fence panels had the dreaded Ivy growing in amongst them, and he showed me some of the roots..like tree trunks. Terrible stuff, it has got behind the fence post and has crumbled it awa. He has filled our Green Wheelie bin for this week with what has come off the two panels!I would never buy a house with Ivy growing on it, it gets everywhere and into the brickwork and ruins it. Ours are just little wooden panels but they are ruined with the stuff. So vin has got a great bargain actually, 2 panels for £58 and the man delivered them too. They are called "Grange" very posh..
Funny thing, I just heard on the news that the fences at Aintree Racecourse where the Grand National in run are being altered to make them smaller. This follows the deaths of two beautiful horses this year. They are making Beechers Brook safer and one or two others.
it all seems to be fences today!!
We nipped into Crosby to the Sainsburys to get our veggies for the week. You get half an hour free parking, and by the time I had walked down to my bank and went round the shop the half hour was up, and we didn't dawdle either. So from there back home for Vins coffee..but I think he was keen to do his fence really. They are really nice panels though,with a curve over the top, pity they only had the two really. He says they are part of his plan for the refurbishment of the garden..Bless Him..

My beautiful Orchid, still in glorious flower after nemerous weeks. Amazing flowers.
Tonight we are having:
