Gentle Sunday

... Well, it was once the overnight gales subsided.  This area is subject to a phenomenon which sometimes sees winds from the east accelerated as they pass over the mountains.  It was blowing a hoolie last night when I got home, wheelie bins asunder and debris on the move.  Thankfully it eased late morning.   

A bit of post trip sorting this morning and then a walk along the front with Meg.   This afternoon I ran a glazing workshop at pottery which was well received .... and lots of fun too.    Meg and I had a walk at Rhydyronen late afternoon and with lighter evenings I was able to spend an hour in and around the greenhouse after tea.   Much watering in and out, new plants acquired and gifted this week all unpacked and a few things potted on.   

Primula marginata 'Mauve Mist' is flowering in greenhouse and garden.  It's a lovely deep coloured form.  The species, marginata, seem to do well outside here which is a win given that so many of my fav plants have issues with wind, salt and slugs in this garden!
