Our garden is very lucky today... bright and sunny, not too hot or cold or windy... in fact just perfect!
And we have David mowing the leaves off the tennis court and Niall working on our garden.
Can you see him way down in the right side corner.
Niall has trimmed the hedges and is now watering.

Niall came today! Hurray!
David and I headed off early to Bunnings to buy a bit of colour plus some potting mix, then to Forestway for some yummies!
Niall arrived not long after we'd returned and got suck into our garden!
At last after these two beautiful old fire grates had been out of sight for so many years they have been re-discovered! The white Ornithogalum has been planted in the left one.
The Dark Foliage Hydrangea has been planted here and below is the Fuchsia called 'Electric Lights'
Here's the two Kangaroo Paw's called Anigxanthos, Bush Crystal and below is the Saxifraga, Alpino.
#6 is Senetti, a magic salmon! Lets hope I remember to water and look after all these lovely new plants.
Finally Niall did a big tidy up just outside the back door and what a mess that area was!
Mess all gone so now looking a lot healthier and farewell to Niall, see you in another couple of weeks!

Buses and trains.
David planned to catch our local bus to Turramurra today to meet his brother Andrew and head for a lovely long bush walk together... Driving the bus from here was our Gardener Niall who does both jobs...
In the mean time, Nerys was putting out Hornsby Community College leaflets when she met up with Andrew who had arrived and was waiting for David... then Niall and David turned up! What a lovely community we live in eh!

Gosh this has been a fun morning, so much happening here.
Niall came early and did a great job in our garden.
Woolies delivered one very big shop.
Our 16 year old washing machine died, David did try to fix it for days with no luck.
My SCQuilty friend Liza popped in for a lovely long catch up.
Yesterday afternoon David ordered a new Washing machine which arrived at 1pm today.
Clothes are in it and washing away! Yay! What a fun day.
And then... Tomos came back from his wonderful trip catching up with friends up north.
He's now gone off to catch up with lots more of his old friends! but will be home here tonight.

Enjoyed a lovely morning here today,
Jackson popped in with his new whiz-bang car washer and did a brilliant job on my very dirty little Pug.
Niall also came around to attend to our beautiful garden, I never like it when he tells me it's time to prune our Lavender hedge, I miss those beautiful flowers but there again I do know if it's not pruned those flowers won't comeback so I try not to look.
All done now and looking very neat with those two Frangipani cuttings are looking very healthy.
Niall pruned our Nature Strip last fortnight, looking groovy isn't it.
