Today marked the beginning of my mowing for the year. I figured it was time when I couldn’t find Day-z and, after two hours of searching, realised she was lying down in the back garden. Mirinda has a cold so I locked her in the bedroom and, taking the dogs with me, I spent a goodly amount of time trying to extricate the mower from the shed. This finally accomplished, I found some petrol, filled the mower and then started the job.
The weather was perfect (still a total lack of contrails), not too hot, not close to cold. I spent the next hour happily cutting grass. It normally takes around half an hour but the grass was so long, I needed to empty the catcher twice as many times. After finishing, I sat on the patio with a beer, admiring my handiwork.
Mirinda finally made an appearance and we sat outside for a tea/coffee. She says the garden looks much better just having the grass cut. I agree. You can see the tulips better. Speaking of which…here’s the red ones.
Our red tulips in the evening sun
We were going to St John’s tonight to celebrate a certain someone’s birthday but, due to illness, I had to cancel. We have rescheduled for next week instead.
I am so glad that you eventually found Day-z hidden by the long grass.The red tulips are superb spring is such a magical time especially in England.We are finally taking our flower cart down as it is rotting and unable to be repaired.We have a fountain to put in the carts place we will have to hire an electrican to connect it up.I hope Mirinda feels better soon.love to you both.Claire
