Turf time

Today saw us make a little lawn halfway down our back garden,  This garden is north-facing so from this time of year onwards the sun makes it at least half way to the house (hence the new lawn, which is to be a sitting area for breakfast etc.).  As Bella has peed on our other grass in the past, causing it to die back, we took precautions to keep her off this new lawn until it is established.  The photo shows Su putting the final touches to our Bella deterrent.

After this, I took Bella off for a stomp around and up and down the valley our north-facing garden looks towards. Up to Charlcombe Church, where I saw this unconnected hose, new flowers and a demonstration of how all-reaching the HIghways Authority is!

 

Then we zoomed off to Bristol for a late and delicious lunch of dim sum at our favourite Chinese restaurant. Talked more about post UWE travel and living elsewhere possibilities. Now back home with full tummies and feeling a little dozy.  Must wake up in time for the last instalment of "The Killing", an excellent Danish TV series we got hooked into.
