It's been a hard day's night...

...and I've been working like a dog!
It's been a hard day's night....I should be sleeping like a log.
Another tough day in the nursery. My peaceful slumber only disturbed by Dad trying to run me over with the rotavator.

Papa's got a brand new bag!

Last week I had a short break away from the garden. This involved travelling, though thankfully not in this bag. Just Dad's little joke. Ha, ha!
Very funny, Dad. Though it's very tempting to leave a little present!!!

Bailey's bulbs

Well here we are in sunny Devon (not)! Dad has finally got around to planting bulbs kindly donated by Peter Nyssen
500 bulbs all now distributed around the garden, should look great in the Spring. I am helping - see the bulb packets behind me. Dad covers the bulbs with wire before putting the soil back, as this helps stop the rabbits digging them up. Arggghhhh rabbits, let me at 'em!

A damp day for a dog

Water, water everywhere.......
And none of it in the right place.
Today, Dad and I have been trying to herd the torrents of water off the road outside the garden.
The water pours down the stream, blocking the drains with debris. Then it likes to jump out onto the road and cause mayhem!
We have been clearing the ditch and drains, which can be difficult. Sometimes Dad gets in a bad temper.  I have to cover my ears !!
