Thank-you. Busy in the garden atm, but our day will definitely involve cake later on! Mr F busy refurbing pond surround with a new pebbled area, & I've been doing some planting - adding in those self-sown freebies to fill gaps in the borders. Intend to repair a small area of lawn too, using a few free turfs liberated during Mr F's work around the pond. Just stopped for coffee & piece of Easter chocolate.
Enjoy your day, whatever you are all getting up to.

Thank-you, OBL. Hope you are not in too much pain today. The arthritis in my hands is bad atm. I think the CBD oil will be coming out later. Bodies! Honestly, who'd have 'em?!

Thanks, @PiP. I think I'm going to get back out there before I seize up! Just got to get a loaf in the oven. Sunshine a bit hit & miss today, but it's dry so we are making the most of it.

Happy Easter everyone. The cake looks yummy Foxgloves. We are travelling back to Scotland so may go back up later today rather than risk bank holiday traffic. I’ve stocked up on the 15p veg which will keep for weeks in the bottom of fridge. X5
