Mowing & strimming--

--practically all day! Sorry no Blog yesterday and I am trying to do a daily one as I slipped up recently and got left behind with my blogging! Later on Thursday Graham, Ruaridh and moi are heading up to the Glen. So after breakfast and after G left for the studio I had a shower and washed my hair, before taking Ruaridh to the woods. Had a lovely walk in warm sunshine.
Back home sorted some business matters, spoke to mum she is fine. Had a word with Layla, Bella and her are good!
Vacuumed the floor in the lounge and hall, packed our clothes and some foodstuffs, then had my lunch.
Waited for Graham but as he didn't get in touch I decided to clean the stairs, as I was doing this G phoned arranged to meet him down at Waitrose to get messages. So Ruaridh and I got ready and walked down to meet Graham, did the Waitrose shop then Sainsbury's hopefully have got all we need.
Home a snack of brie and bread with a big cuppa, after which we got the car packed, Ruaridh onboard and left for the N/W about 1830h. Lovely journey, warm weather and lots of sun--very few cars!
Arrived at the cottage around 2215h house was fine. Unpacked the car, made a cuppa then we had beans on toast with a lovely Americano before hitting the sack. Goodnight.
Awoke quite early this morning with the Wonder Dog, saw to him then back to bed with the early morning cuppa, slept until 1000h. Up made breakfast then I made a soda bread before going to have a wash and getting organised to work.
Work we did, I strimmed, Graham mowed then he strimmed with the petrol strimmer--garden looks much better. Had a cuppa around 1300 then had a break for Afternoon Tea at 1500h, soda scone with jam or honey and another cuppa. It was so warm we sat outside and enjoyed the food and weather.
I then made some dough for bread. Then went and started to tidy some of the beds where we used to grow vegetables.
Ruaridh appears to have been very tired today, spoke to mum she appears fine.
Made the bread and a fruit salad for afters.
Lovely dinner made by G, pasta in oil with roasted tomatoes, basil and garlic with bread and olives.
Oh yes for starter we had prawns, avocado and lettuce in rose-marie sauce AKA ketchup and mayonnaise.
Fruit salad for dessert.
Spoke with Layla.
Very tired just making the cuppa then bed. Goodnight.
