I made five bottles of my favourite juice today!

Apples, Carrots, Ginger and freshly picked Mint makes my favourite juice.
This pretty little ???  decided it wanted to be part of my mint... I declined it's offer and it's now in the compost bin.

Another fun day....

Had my dressing changed at our local Doctors then we headed across the road to Campa Tampa Cafe for breakfast.

David enjoyed the above and I enjoyed toasted Banana Bread and my favourite juice below.

 I love visiting Campa Tampa because the whole place is decorated with all sorts of oldy worldy things.

These photos I took from their website.

I've managed to keep my self busy today, very busy in fact.

 I did heaps of stuff but my most amazing achievement today was cleaning out the vegetable draw in the fridge.... I made 5 of my very special 'Vegetable Surprise's one for David tonight and four for the freezer.

Niall was here today and our garden is very grateful as are we.

I had a pile of indoor pot plants that had finished their life indoors so Niall planted what he could around the garden.

Hip Hip Hurray! We got some rain last night, and some this morning as well.

We don't know how much rain we got but it is so lovely to see the garden a little damp!

Lots of bunches of grapes coming??  or are they?
I don't know what this is but it looking very pretty this year.
The Fairy Garden is looking well although there are a few cobwebs still around, must get the spray.
Passionfruit vine is looking good and below I believe are radishes. 

Clivia's still stunning us and the first of our Agapanthus. 

Dunno what this plant is above but we will be getting plenty soon.
Beautiful Rhododendron and below just as beautiful white Wisteria.

52 Years yesterday we moved into our first home.

Leaving our flat in Roseville with the help of friends Neill and Sally!  We had a Falcon plus our London Taxi.

Our home for almost 10 years 2 of which we lived in England.



In 1981 we moved into our new home behind.


Not long after we'd moved in our first Double Decker Bus arrived also with the help from Neill.
