Wow, Looking Good After 10 Years!

Don't wait for the storms of your life to pass. Learn to dance in the rain. - Steve Rizzo
We had such a long lie-in...
We missed "Sounds of the 60s"!!!! 
Oh dear, that is two weeks of shows I have to catch up with... 
While we were sleeping, we missed some of the Storm Hannah.......
We had a late cup of tea in bed.
Lots of hugs and kisses followed....
Then we got up...
The wind was getting that bad,
It was shutting the windows!
I looked out of my front door and saw that Storm Hannah had visited and left a mess!
 Oh dear!
I had to tidy that up before we went out...
Now out for a little ride...↓

The wind nearly blew off my hat and nearly blew my skirt up.
I got some nice stuff from Home Bargains for the garden..
 Next stop was to get some veg from Lidl↓

We were blew back to the car....
We got back to the house..↓
 Once we emptied the car,
Had a late lunch,
We went back out to↓
 Got more things for the garden.
It started to rain....
So all the plants had a little drink.
I found some photos of my front garden,
When I moved in 10 years ago...
This is a real eyesore↓
*It has took 10 years to get it looking nice!*
Tomorrow we are changing what is down the path by the Pear tree↓↓
 
It got that cold the heating had to go on.
We had a light evening meal.
Time for another movie to watch...
I checked the Birthdays.
