I should be cleaning and packing!!

Well with only a few days to go you would think I would want to stay in and be sorting/packing etc... of course this is me and so we have spent the day shopping for last minute bits an pieces and also came home with one of these...

I dont think it will fit in the suitcase but it fits the garden nicely!!! Of course it was flat packed from B&Q and I had to give Russ the challenge to have it up and together by the time I had cooked Chilli! 1.5 hours later and we were eating our chilli al fresco with a lovely glass (or 2) of wine. Shame about the cold breeze but it was nice and relaxing - looking forward to using it more when we return for our bbq summer they are predicting.

Last weekend was spent in the garden getting the veg patch up and running. We should have lots of beans and lettuce and maybe corn, carrots, beetroot and courgettes. It is a little learn as you go along but we are having fun.

Russ is most pleased with our 220l water butt which filled overnight on the 2nd night we had it - I think his free water rain dance may have helped lol!

Well the august leavers at work were announced this week and I was not amongst them. I am pleased as I wanted to still be there at the end of september after that they can get rid of me whenever. The sad thing is that only 3 of my team will be left and we are definately the best team in the office and they are a great bunch to work with - I am going to miss them all :(

Unfortunately no crafting over the last couple of weeks - hopefully when we are home from our travels I can get into more of a routine of gardening and crafting and chilling (oh and decorating for my Mum & Dad !!!)

OK enough waffling for tonight. My next post will probably from Florida some point next week :D
