Gazania

Never had one of these before, I ordered it from the local nursery during lock-down when I got some other stuff. it's a very weird looking plant, Gazania are usually more daisy like but this is really weird.

Nice day today, Paula got a lot more of the gate done, new posts had to be put in to hold it and a few other changes, it should be finished tomorrow weather permitting. then it will need a coat of wood preserver and that will be my job. although I have been helping a lot.

I planted some cut-and-come-again lettuce seeds. I sent for them from the internet (through Amazon Market Place) and when they came it said there were approx 4,300 mixed seeds I think that will do me for a few years (I wonder who counted them lol).

My cucumber plants (2) are doing well there are 4 on one plant and 3 on the other with several others on their way just tiny, Good job my grandchildren love them, Caitlin (Great granddaughter) sits and just eats a whole one like it was a stick of rock.

Lots of people about when we went for a walk this morning, groups of hikers (not social distancing), cyclists, joggers and general going for a walk like us people, plus cars lots of them. The local footie team in the nearby village were limbering up with a kick-about things are getting back to near normal for some folks. Hope it's not too soon.

Longest day today (Saturday) it was still light at 10.45pm
