Marathon Girl

The weather today was much warmer than it has been lately so I decided to get out and do a bit of gardening. I bought some shrubs " off the internet " a few weeks ago and because the weather has been cold and wintry they have been sitting in a bucket of water in the garage. So I thought it was about time I planted them. I had to dig over the soil first - which was quite difficult as the ground was wet and sticky. Managed to get 5 shrubs planted. Still another 7 to go. No idea where I'm going to put them. I was tempted to buy more than I needed by a bulk buy offer.

Neil phoned me this evening after he finished work. They had a housewarming party last night at his new place. Sounds like it was a good evening.

Becky did the Brighton Marathon this morning. She ran it last year and her time was 4 hours 57 mins and she wanted to do better this year. Well she did .... she finished in 4 hours 29 mins. She texted me and told me she had put some photos on Instagram. So I took this shot of one of them. She and her husband are staying an extra night in Brighton and go home tomorrow.
