Did Loads Today!!

we have both been busy beavers today.  On Saturday we went over to a garden centre that we often go to, to buy a companion garden bench. One of those that has two separate chairs with a small table attached in the centre. We had a £50 voucher from You Gov who I do surveys for, and a £50 winnings from the Daily Mail crossword competition, and the garden centre were doing a promotion online with a 20% voucher off garden furniture too, so we jumped at the chance and went to get ne before they sold out. Then when Vin went to pay for it we were given %40 off, so we got the bench set for just over £100 instead of £199 !!!. Bargain eh!! We also went to get Rusty's tablets from the Vets which is a roundabout route home, so killed two birds with one stone.
Anyway, Vin is refurbishing the garden a bit, well quite a lot actually, so Saturday he put the bench together. It looks fantastic! really fantastic!.
So, this morning he decided to have a good day in the garden,cleared all the top bit by the shed where their little hut has gone. replanted two of the Spirea plants that were in broken pots, that had bitten the dust in the frost.  We did the bedding today as well because of maybe rain tomorrow, so some of it is actually out on the line.<3 p="">I spent the morningclearing out the clothes in my chest of drawers. I now have two carrier bags full of clothes for the Charity shop, and a smaller pile of cotton things for Vin for his car etc., And, loads of space in my chest for more clothes to go in!!!! I do have to say that the ones I have given away are ones that are now too big for me, so not wearable for me any more. Some good stuff too, hope the charity shops get something for them.
So all in all a good day today I think. jane rang up before just as we were doing the bedding in the front room, she was in Tescos, buying soft foods to eat. She went to the dentist this morning and she has a gum infection so has antibios to take and go back next Tuesday. So she didn't want foods that will hurt her mouth.
I put £100 in her bank for her yesterday, so at least she will be able to pay for it.
Tonight we are having:
Pizza with tomato sauce pizza cheese, mushroom and pepper for Vin
green salad with baby plum tomatoesand avocado
Potato salad for moi and cous cous salad for Vin.

This is the clematis overhanging the fence where our patio is. beautiful at the moment.
