Saturday October 15
After not much sleep, an equally weary Josh joined me on the bed and talked entertainingly for at least half an hour. Mostly about films he had seen.
There was another fantastic deluge post dawn along with a few claps of thunder and lightning flashes. It soon dries up but leaves us with a humid day when the sun appears. Not the best of weather for gardening.
Sar and Mike went off to collect a table and chairs for the lounge balcony - an EBay purchase - and Pam started on the front statue bed. She cut down the Joy Weed (!!) which Sara hates and then Sara cleared it out completely. It's a tallish, straggly, purple-leaved ground cover plant with small creamy pompoms.
Pam found two different frogs in the bed, here they are.Will we ever be able to identify both.

On his return, Mike set to and mowed all the grass, quite a job, front, back and one side. He then raked it and strimmed the edges, by which time it looked great. During this time,Sara left for a massage, taking Josh to Ryan's en route.
Late afternoon. Pam wanted to buy some more compost so we went to a new nursery which was up market and expensive. We didn't buy anything!
After the very disappointing France Wales semi........we lost, didn't stand a chance after Sam Warburton was harshly red carded early in the first half, we had supper. Last night's leftovers, just as good. Sara had served us dips, carrots, celery etc at half time.
