It's been a dodge the rain day today. We have had some heavy showers.
This is my wild flower meadow. You've heard of No Mow May, well this is No Mow May June July August September and October. No need to mow it, just let it do it's thing.
These flowers keep appearing every year, in all kinds of inconvenient places. This is supposed to be a concrete driveway, but it has lots of cracks in it, which is where these plants push through. I kind of like them so I'll wait until they die off before I pull them up.
I needed to do some shopping at Aldi this afternoon, so I stopped by the Industrial Estate on the way there, and picked a bag of litter. Might as well. I was disappointed to see that the Council have not collected my other bags. My three bags are now four. I checked the other litter bins around the pond and see that they have not been emptied. If they haven't been done by Friday I will go and tidy the mess up.
Luckily I managed to dodge the rain while picking, but I got stranded inside Aldi. Oh wow, did it hammer it down.
Dinner tonight was an omelette. No it's not burnt. I put left over chips in it, and chopped beetroot. Added garlic and onion chutney for flavour. I start it off in a pan, and finish it off under the grill. It was chuffin lovely.
That's all for now. Catch ya tomorrow. Toodle pip. ilona
ARE PEOPLE FINED IF THEY ARE CAUGHT LITTERIING? I LIVE IN A STATE WHERE THAT HAPPENS. IT IS SURPRISINGLY TIDY IN MOST AREAS ALONG ROADS AND IN PUBLIC PLACES. THANKS FOR GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND AND TAKING PRIDE IN YOUR SURROUNDINGS.
ReplyDeleteAh snap, I see you have Orange Hawkweek (aka Fox and Cubs) in your lawn too, and some lovely Welsh Poppies by the shed. I have lots of them both here.
