21st June 2015 - Marcia, Gardener Extraordinaire!


You can do it if you B and Q it!

Idon't often get time to do extra jobs in the garden beyond grasscutting but on days like yesterday, it was impossible to resist. Having spent some time moving a very large lily to a better spot, I decided the new area needed a little extra planting. 

What better way to undertake the day's Operation Transportation commitment than to cycle to B and Q. 

Chris was sailing, so Thea (12), Lucy (10) and the dog came for the trip. We headed off close to 6pm, when the Saturday busyness on the cyclepath had eased. Love buying from the B and Q "about to die" section at knock-down prices and resurrecting the plants back to life! Filled the bike basket with plants and tucked a few more into my backpack. 


Long Shore Drive, Jacobs Island
Thea showed us a pleasant new way back to the line through Long Shore Drive. Despite our time choosing plants and needing to go at dog-appropriate pace, the trip took us little over an hour. 

Not much longer than in a car and a great deal more pleasant. 

(Video is a little wobbly. Haven't mastered heavy front-loading and cycling with one hand!)
