Sunday Rest

Its Sunday, its grey and overcast with Showers.I took more photo's to blog.Some flower pics, and overall garden shape.I got a catalogue yesterday from Greenfingers.com ( Http://www.greenfingers.com)
I love looking at the stuff in there, garden furniture, solar lights, solar fountains (i love the froggy one.Its powered by the sun and recycles its own water), sheds, Arbors etc.
The sad thing is we dont have the money to buy any of it.So the pleasure is in looking at stuff, and imagining where it will go.
The Borders are full of colour, and vibrancy.June days.The smell of roast chicken is filling the house.Tasha, and Salal have come for Sunday dinner.She says the garden is looking okay and things are growing with my watering instruction.
I tried taking floral pics that are in the house.A sunflower field from Cornwall, two pastel watercolours (one reminds me of Carols rose's furniture, and cushions http://carolsgarden.blogspot.com/ ), and my Nan's woodland picture of a cottage in the background with bluebells growing in the dappled shade.Their is a path and a stream leading to the stone cottage.
I think that Nan's family were brought up in a Stone Cottage in Pickering.I found a clipping from a newspaper with a farmhouse cottage for sale.
Pics to follow.I hope all your gardens are growing today this Sunday.

Hi Davybro
The stone cottage newspaper clipping you found might be of Rock Cottage, Nan's family home. She took a clipping when it came up for sale in the 80s.
Hope you get your solar frog fountain.
I've found a gold waving cat ornament, by the way, with a battery operated paw. I wonder what Santa might bring you for Christmas?!!!
