I'm mowing the lawns & replacing a broken pane of glass in the greenhouse.

I'm hoping the posty is bringing me some more tomato seeds today as most of the ones I planted last month have not germinated yet !!! Some of those frosts we had must have knocked them back.



Its great to hear you are ok and getting out into the garden Ian Pampas grasses are really attractive to look at.

I'd love a lawn mower like the one you have in the photo. A Honda petrol mower, the cheapest in Kenya, starts off at £500.

This morning, we did a telephone order for groceries to a local supermarket outside of the city. When I got there, I opened the boot and the lad kindly put the box in the back. I kept my distance, living dangerously.

On the way back to the house, we were pulled over by the traffic police and as soon as I mentioned we had a camera and everything was being filmed, our stop came to an abrupt end and we were told to proceed:

I use an ID on the tube @ Good Citizen. On this occasion the police were good humoured, laughing as they let me go.

The missus said doing some shopping this afternoon was hard work! They're even limiting pet food now, The cashier said you cant buy more than two tins of each flavour and our cats only eat those small tins Four small tins for three cats I'll haqve to go back again tomorrow.



She had to wait ages in town as some stores were only letting two people in at a time and there were long queues.

Changed my mind Phil, decided to shut down for customer safety reasons. Going to look for a job on the wagons or delivering for supermarket. Rather do that than sit on my butt for 3 months on gov't hand outs

Thick frost has greeted me this morning but we have wall to wall sunshine again.

Got most of the garden done yesterday.
