Look at my bargain! I bought 9 Alliums for...£1..yeah...just a pound! I got 2 bunches at 50p each but I did have to barter. One was £1.99 and the other 50p so I begged, if truth be known, but managed to get them at the cheaper price. I have never had Alliums before though I do have some in an enamel bucket outside.
Well, today was my last day at school for 10 days. Bliss. For those of you who are wondering I work on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays. I'm very, very lucky as I love my 2 days at home alone. I have a list of things I want to achieve...
1. Paint old outside table and cover with oilcloth (Green Gate oilcloth no less!).
2. Potter around the garden and watch the Chelsea Flower Show and dream.
3. Sew at least one more cushion.
4. Read June edition of Country Living and drool.
5. Feed plants, deadhead and fix new hosepipe.
6. More sewing and listen to Radio Devon's Lunchtime phone-in or Anna Raeburn's LBC show.
7. Watch at least 2 episodes of The Waltons series 4 (umm Waltons!)
8. Go to Dartington Hall and sit and ripple in their gardens.
9. Ripple, ripple, ripple.
10. Watch my washing blowing on the line.
11. Go to Lyme Regis fossil hunting.
12. Speak to as many of my loved ones as possible (you've been warned!)
So I'm keeping my fingers crossed I'll be able to cross off at least 6 things... time will tell!
