The wettest November since 1951 and I'm bored with it. But it's good for turning your mind to Christmas, so apart from the usual shopping for gifts we've made a big start on improving our conservatory. The ceiling has finally been lined and painted and we're now just waiting for the electrician to finish installing the lights, however with the new sisal rug/carpet its looking much better. It now remains for us to take out the awful kitchen units and line the walls, invest heavily in some plants and it will all be done. Perhaps we'll be finished in a fortnight ......... oh yes I still have my pile of material to turn into bunting, well its something for January.
Off now to spray all the allium heads I collected from my plants in the summer, the journalist Sarah Raven recommends spraying them silver or gold and using them for decorations, so this is my latest small 'thank you' gift for friends who have ask us to supper
