Abandoned

CLICK ON IMAGES TO ENLARGE. REPEAT IF REQUIRED

Early this morning I stepped out into the garden to investigate the final work that Jackie did on Margery’s bed yesterday.

First she took out some unwanted plants, then replenished the soil and planted more lobelias.

Before returning to my armchair I spotted many bees foraging among the New Bed fuchsias, and photographed one.

by Jim who had asked for permission to use one of my photographs as a backdrop. I like the clarity of the simple message, and what he has done with my image.

The rest of the afternoon, I was a couch potato watching the Olympics.

For our dinner this evening, Jackie produced chicken tikka, rice and peas, and vegetable samosas. She drank Hoegaarden and I abstained.
