So this off Friday saw me and Dad pop over to Notcutts for some purple (plum) slate to finish off the area behind the garage. The had a reasonable deal on so off we went and as per usual I also got distracted by other garden pieces!
Bought the little Robin to sit on Mum's sewing machine to remind me that when Robin's are around it means a loved one is near. There's the slate in situ and now it's had some rain on it, its looking more like the rest of the plum slate over the other side of the garden. Handy as I still have a bag left to top up that area at some point.
Also got a couple of the Flutterby items, solar powered butterflies which twitch and hover around when there's enough sun on them. And my final purchase was a lovely pink and white fuchsia to go in the front garden - something that always reminds me of my Nan Alice who loved fuchsias and was always on the lookout for a colour combination she didn't already have!
All in all a good trip and I bought lunch for us whilst we were there to save cooking later.
