Overnight in G/house 3.4 C

 Turned out to be a great day in the garden.
I got most of the rest of the front border cleaned of weeds, only the area around the Irises to be done now.

 I tidied around the other front beds to repair the damage done by the birds looking for worms.

 Alison planted Yellow Lilies in the back garden as well as picking a load of Kale and PS Broccoli that was ready for eating.

 We decided to propagate our Scented Pelargoniums so we spent the afternoon doing that. If they all take we will be submerged in sweet smelling plants. 

 Forecast for next week not very good, cold East winds and possibly snow.
