DIY journey
We had been out during the day and on the way home, we went into Homebase, not realising that it was closing down and had huge sales on.
We had tried to get a new toilet seat via Next, but both of them had issues with, so were returned.
There was a 60% saving here on the toilets seats, so decided to get one and some other items as well and made a great saving.
This was sad to see Homebase closing, as we had used it a lot during the pandemic.
We had noticed that Claire’s mum rose was starting to bloom again, which is impressive considering we are now in November.
A couple of pictures.
As you can see from the couple of pictures. Claire’s mum rose tree and the new rose plant are blooming well again.
So with the weather being decent for our week away and getting warmer for the following week.
We decided to varnish the garden bench. I think it turned out better than we thought.
Do you agree?
The rose tree is blooming well again and one of the new rose plants as bloomed for the 1st time. As you can see from the pictures on a rare blue sky day.
The rose tree in remembrance to Claire mum is starting to bloom for the first time this year.
Due to the weather we have had this year, this afternoon was the first time that I cut the lawn.
It was surprising how dry the lawn was considering the amount of rain we have this year.
The most disappointing thing, was how the lawn was looking after all the work I did previously. One part just feels like it’s full of weeds. Not happy at all.
Blooming well.
Some of the spring plants are starting to show as well as the old faithfuls.
With the weather finally being decent, we went and got some new plants for the garden.
As you can see the lawn is pretty high due to the amount of rain we have had. When will it stop?
