Garden wreck

It is all a nasty mess but Tony turned up today and we had a proper conversation about what is to be done.
And this is the right time to be dealing with it ...... if the rain will hold off for a couple of months ............... 

Hope and despair..........


The garden is in need of some TLC. 
Rob came in and cleared the top growth  so now we can see where we are. We have to rebuild the flower borders and reorganise the structure and the planting.
 We `ll keep you posted .....

Bird dog...........


                                                                                 A fine morning for gulls, and dare I say it, a little warmer. The English setter is engaged in conversation with a gull. There is a hint of sunshine .... such luxury.

I did go .......


...... down to the beach this morning as the wind had dropped and the sun was out. Some of the fluff or spume was looking like meringue in the sunlight.
 The beach was littered with cuttlefish bones; anyone out there with a budgie?

If you think...........


..... I am going on the beach in this weather.........
 I did get down the other day but with the easterly wind I was not stopping, nor, with it moving into the north , will I be going again in a hurry.

Would you............


......... believe it ? The temperature is 3C at best and they still go out and play. 
I don't know who is madder, them or me.
 What do you think ?

View from..........

........ the backdoor. The east wind is blowing, a bit, and it is still on the cold side. I know I am a wimp, so I am not going on the beach this morning.
