Solitary bloom

Only flower on my clematis.  Normally get about 50.
It has only climbed a third of the way up the conical support this year.  No idea why, as I cut it back in my normal way.
Chopped a lot of the Pyracantha back as it will be in the way when erecting the new shed.  Pleased I managed it before the heavy rain shower.  Also good timing because I have had a text to say the new shed will be delivered on Friday between7am and 9,37am!  According to the blurb when I ordered it, delivery in MK is usually Tuesdays or Thursdays, but I am not complaining.
For second week running, Green bin not collected.  The complaints department will be getting to recognise my address soon!
