Park Gate Down
This afternoon, we took Jo over to Park Gate Down, for a run around some different woods.
In the grassland, they had many, *many* cowslips:
Also lots of early purple orchids, but they are pretty much over by now.
We also spotted some salad burnet, which was very pretty-looking:
The man with the giant vacuum cleaner came this morning while I was pilating, and the problem was not the septic tank. On the 'plus' side, Mike now knows where the other end of the pipe is, so tomorrow we're going to try poking things in it from the other end. It's a good job we've got other bathrooms....
This afternoon, taking advantage of a better than forecast day, I (guess what) did some more weeding. It must be getting better, because today I got as far as the back garden.
Have ordered shelves from Ikea, some for the shed and some for the conservatory, which is getting over-run with trays of salad and other misc seedlings. Life is so exciting out here in the countryside. I've been reading a book about chickens, too.
