Something to look forward to next Spring .
I scattered three packets of Sweetpea seeds into this tub and stirred them in . Push in 5 old canes and wrapped them up with a couple of sheets of fleece . These should be starting to come up by Christmas .

Just had a quick check around and so far as I can see everybody's roofs are still on and the power hasn't gone off . I can't see any trees down . We had torrential rain . I could do with some more sleep !
The weather warning , for us , is on until 11am . ⛈️
Saw these beautiful toadstools along the footpath .
The wind then began to pick up and we came home .
Brought in the dustbin and recycling tub . I took down the bird feeders and dismantled the bird bath , it fell over in the last storm and I really don't want it to get broken .... moved some more plants into the greenhouse and the shed .
Moved the car into a safe zone..we hope anyway .
It's coming up to 4pm and raining now , not too blowy as yet .
Time to have a cup of tea and fill a flask with coffee for later , in case the power goes off .
⛈️ Take care everyone ⛈️
The clouds are building though and we have a yellow weather warning for wind and rain .
They are saying that here on the Lizard we could get hurricane force winds which is very worrying .
So poor old greenhouse is going to get a battering . We'll be worrying about our roof and surrounding trees , telegraph poles and power-lines .
I hope these trees will be o.k. I think I'll pass on working in the summer house today .
This storm will be coming in later this afternoon and continue through the night and tomorrow .
Candle lamps and matches at the ready for this evening .
And a flask of soup .
The power usually does go off during storms here .
We might not get so much of frost and snow , but we sure do get the windy weather !
