Day 1886 I can see clearly now.

12th October 2022

A great day to work outside, a rare day in the coming week according to the weather channel.

We had a call from the optometrist that my new glasses were available for collection. So we rushed round to get them.

I had one reading and a bifocal set which I have not had before. Putting them on for the first time felt strange, the fringing effect disturbed me, but I guess I will get used to it.

I finally got round to planting the English bluebell bulbs I had found online. I decided to plant them under a tree in the front where all the wild flowers are. I scraped three concentric circles around the tree trunk, and set them three inches apart, if they all grow it should look fantastic.

I finished filling the second gabion, it is always a difficult job to fit the top panel when the sides are bowed out. The joining connector is a spiral wire that is wound down the corner holding the panels together, a clever idea.

I have just one left to do, then the diminishing rock pile will disappear, about time to.

We took pictures of the large Afghan dresser, boy! That is a heavy beast.
