Pete and Kelli’s social distance day 22
5th April 2020
Gardening day, or more correctly getting rid of the last of the bloody rose bushes day.
With sheer determination and protective gloves we sneaked up to them and dug deep into the roots. They fought back, lashing out with the savage thorns, but they were no match for the two of us.
There were a total of nine bushes that Kelli posted, and got someone to collect. They must have been so quick, because I didn’t hear them come and go.
We raked the stones, and put down new anti weed material, I successfully fell over with the wheelbarrow full of stones spilling them over the grass, I blamed the shifting load, but I probably fell over my big feet again.
Next job was planting some raspberry and blueberry bushes. We’re not going to be caught out with out our fruit again, if this happens again in the next three years we’ll be prepared.
The pair of us have been personally lockdown for the last twenty two days but have continued with our lives and business. We have strict rules that we follow both for collect stuff and delivery. We have used the take outs and home delivery services, and although the spontaneous nature of shopping has changed, this new way of life has become the norm.
