The back garden and lawn . by beryl

The back garden and lawn .

I have been out for the day -- the 1st proper day out since the beginning of covid Gary and I went for a pub lunch en-route to the garden-centre .
A lovely and relaxed experience in the Pub - We went there for early lunch and so there were only a few diners there . So a choice of tables and waitress service .. before we continued on our journey . Although I didn't buy any plants in the garden centre , I did purchase a pkt of salad bowl lettuce which I can sow in a flower trough to pick individual leaves as we need them !
But I purchased 2 pairs of sandals - now we are into the warmer weather !! One pair in Cotton Traders and one pair reduced in the Pavers Shop . So no rain now for some time please !!
I took with me 2 cameras -- and guess what - I never took one photo ! So had to take a view of my back garden on arriving home !!
Please note, I have sculptured my privet bush into a "lolly-pop "! it must have been 35-40 years ago I brought some cuttings from my Dad's Privet hedge and grew them on individually - Over the years I have gradually shaped the bush by pruning annually and I am quite proud of it !
Snap! We had our first proper pub lunch out yesterday. We sat down at a picnic bench in sunshine. As we took our first mouthfuls of food, it started to rain.....!

nice to see more of the garden in one go

I should think so too.....it’s very professional looking....lovely to have this as part of your dads garden. It’s so lovely to eat out & enjoy someone else's cooking....I don’t think most other halves have any idea what a treat it is for us home cooks. I’ve been very careful there not to presume we are all women note! I have no sandals at all as they are packed away in the container but am wearing my Sketchers mostly at the moment. No new shoes for me just now...other things to spend on!!
