Secateurs - secateurs or pruners for one hand, are the tool of choice for pruning and clipping flowers in the garden. They are able to cut all kinds of stems, from the tough rose to the thin Batchelor Button, and they are a handy garden tool.

Good morning everyone and happy Saturday!

Trissie, I hope you enjoyed the theatre yesterday evening, and you have a lovely weekend at the cottage.

KitKat -thank you far asking after the bite - it's taking its time, but it's getting there. It was very deep ( Fred has long fangs!) but it's healing up from the bottom, which is what we want. :D

Bama, I'm sure your hair looks even more beautiful now!

L.Ann,.I hope you have a lovely day with your family celebrating your birthday.

Helia, I'm sure AC valued your input over the text books.

Dogged, good to know that Artemis has landed safely - those pictures they sent back were amazing!

Good to see you, Gma!

I never made it back yesterday, but I sprayed the rest of the roses, cut the grass and fed the pots , and attended to laundry. Today I need to check on C (DF PL's Mum) and take her for coffee at the community shop. I need to leave at 9.45 am, so I would like to have a quick run round with the hoover down before I leave, so when I come back the house looks welcoming! My other plans for today are to water on the nematodes against vine weevil, and to fi d a way of hanging the little sachets containing the predator mite on the fuchsias - there's not ait of too growth yet!

Have a good day everyone!

◕‿◕ * * * Good Morning! * * * ◕‿◕

Kittykatt, thanks for the start. You've been very active in the garden ! Thanks for all the info on gardening tools this week. The word for secateurs is the same in French, sécateur. I will probably spend some time chasing dandelions, maybe sow sunflowers, maybe other things too.

Not CUOP - but I lurked a bit during the week. Kids are on school break for two weeks, I will have a few days off and MrNG will be home several days as well. It's grey but dry. DS10 has athletics practice and I will drive him. If I manage to get him out of bed. Supposed to leave in 35 minutes...

TADAs
had a decent night's sleep
tea
mail exchange with DM

TODO
whatever the morning brings
during the weekend : time on my résumé, some decluttering of outgrown clothes, some cleaning, some paperwork, some picture sorting...
