Irrigation

Moonset, as taken by me!

Back to some sort of normality today and after a nice lay in bed I'm up and about and catching up with some more TV that I'd missed. So, after I'd managed to wake Phil up with Strictly Dance Fever I do breakfast which is scrambled eggs and bacon... bloody gorgeous even if I do say so myself. If there is one thing I can cook, and cook well its scrambled eggs, and the secret is to add some eggs with out the white bits, makes them nice and rich.

After we've had brunch, we zip off to homebase where we get an irrigation system for the garden - we've loads of stuff in pots and so the plants can't get water from the ground and rely on us watering them. And when you consider that can be a bit hit and miss we figured an automated system would be much better than a human run one, which more often than not fails to deliver anything :)

I then settle down to watch even more TV, and to do some cross stitch whilst Phil plays around with his pipes and with all that activity the afternoon soon disappears and we get chinese take out for dinner since the fridge is devoid of anything other than butter and tomato puree.
