Wedding in Nottingham at the weekend

Delivered flowers ,then hit some shops-boy, so exciting to be `out` on a Saturday. Iv not been out of the shop on a Saturday for a while!! I went to college in Nottingham so good to revisit.

I'm suffering at the mo-crontic toothache , my wisdom teeth -eck , hope I Don't have to have then out??

Meadow cutting garden

Getting lots done in the meadow cutting garden. The weather has encouraged me to `get on with it` before winter. Iv got some hardy annuals in that i started off in the pollytunnel-black Cornflowers and Cerinthe.
Bulbs are going in as the old back allow !!

Get some sunshine on a grey day!

Flowers look jolly and cheerful even if the weather isn't!

Who done it???

Who set the shop alarm off last night? Woke me (well all of us) in the early hours!

Me thinks ..... A spider!!

Hubbie went on patrol-well Ede would not do a fat lot! Not a soul to be seen.

I'm searching for the guilty suspect .

Pale and interesting

A change from Autumnal colours, pale pinks, or cream and mints.

As much as I love the rich hues , we all relish a change!

Hydrangea's-so easy to dry. Pop them in a vase with a very small amount of water,that way they keep that rich colour . I think they look far nicer when they are papery and faded.

The World Conker Championships ,this Sunday ! We used to walk there every year by the river over to Aston but this year it has moved,to a field nearby.
