Garden update

[bunn]

A quick note about the garden.  Sadly the cat-and-car-related excitement of the last couple of weeks has not been good for it.   Also, it has rained a lot.  The result is that some of my seedlings that should really have been potted out weeks ago have perished, and everything else is looking disturbingly shaggy.  With a bit of luck I can do some mowing this week, if the rain holds off, and then I can do real gardening at the weekend.

I did get some weeding and trimming done yesterday, which is fortunate, as our front steps were starting to look like we had pricked our fingers and gone to sleep for a 100 years.

I can see a hawthorn in bloom from the upstairs window that has to be in our garden somewhere, but I have no idea where the trunk might be attached.  It's a bit disturbing.

It was too wet for me to do anything to our garden this weekend. Everything is looking particularly lush and overgrown now and I desperately need to get the top of our hedge trimmed. I hope it's dry next weekend otherwise I think our little trees are going to be dwarfed by the grass that is growing around them!

Oh. But you have. Didn't you realise? We've all been quite worried about you. Fortunately, technology has kept us nicely well preserved, even though we're all in our 130s. Oh. Excuse me. Here comes my flying car. I'd better close down Windows 2006 and put my silver space suit on.

As for the hawthorn... There are shades of Silver on the Tree about this. The "flying may tree," and all...
