Bricks

Have commenced a brick wall around the vegetable patch at the bottom of the garden. I have simply stood rows of bricks on their ends to form a rectangle which I hope will hold the soil just a couple of inches above ground level. I intend to sieve all the soil in it and fork in some of the compost from the compost bin.

I also purchased some seeds over the weekend to start sowing over the next week. Tomatoes, courgettes, butternut squash, carrots, lettuce, beetroot and Brussels sprouts. I have left it really late this year to start growing the veg but for some reason I just haven't felt like it was time until now. I think now the evenings are lighter and the weather a little warmer I shall make a start!

Made this trifle the other day with sugar free jelly, mandarins, sponge biscuits, low fat custard and fromage fraise. Absolutely gorgeous!

CD Storage


A new storage solution for our many cds! It holds about 450 cds which just about makes up our album collection. Cd singles and soundtracks and compilations are still stored elsewhere!

Garage Site


They have eventually got around to doing something with the garage at the end of our road. They are making a lot of noise at the moment knocking down the buildings and today I think they had a lorry there filling up where the petrol must have been stored.
Check out the following link to see how it used to look: http://richiesoft-onceaday.blogspot.com/2007/05/conwy-garage.html
