Weeding and more weeding!

This week, we kept weeding! Clearing the patch behind the greenhouse ready to spread spring bulbs (Monty Don style as mentioned in the last post) and weeding the wild flower border. We also dug up the last of the geraniums and put them into pots to keep over the winter.
On Thursday we had a couple of visitors - Catriona's mum and little brother - it was good to see them and they could see we had made progress in the garden since their last visit!

This weekend is going to be DiGGers second birthday (!) so we have decided to have a cake and munchies in the shed tomorrow to celebrate (yes, we love any excuse for a cake). This cake promises to be a special one as our newest member Annie (unofficial at present so no photos yet) has offered to bake it tonight!

Also, this week, we sent our cheque off to Mary's Meal Malawi appeal. On checking the web site, it costs just £6.15 to feed one child for a whole year! Mr MacFarlane (who won £10 for planting the tallest cabbage) donated his prize too which means we have now raised £70. This will feed eleven children for one year!
