I hope you’ve all had a nice Bank Holiday weekend. Ours was spoiled a bit by losing Pudding, but otherwise it has been a good weekend. We managed quite a bit of gardening, but with a few interruptions. On Saturday we went shopping with Andree. Good news – it was to a garden centre. Bad news – it was for shoe shopping at a retail outlet at the centre. Good news – I was able to sit outside and enjoy an ice cream in the sun. Bad news – I would have had time for about ten ice creams and a lot of browsing of plants by the time that shoes were eventually chosen.
Matthew came over yesterday, and we all went to Andree’s to dig up a small conifer. Matthew tried to fix Andree’s computer, which appears to have uninstalled its own Internet Explorer, which would explain why you may have been missing Andree on Facebook. We think a virus has been at work. Matthew couldn’t resolve the problem before we had to head home in time for Matt to go a wedding reception.
Quite a relaxed day today. Matt helped me to fetch a dead tree trunk from the fields – I’ve had my eye on it for a while. Our friends Duncan, Lou and daughter Emily came over after lunch – we three blokes sneaked off to the pub for an hour or so, before Andree and my Dad came over for tea.
All in all a “nicely busy” weekend.
Technically we live in Oaktree House, but sadly the tree had to go.
We now have a thriving Oakstump at the front of the house.
