 I forgot my rain mac,
As we had a storm of hailstones!
It still wasn't very warm↓
 
 I was hoping the weather was going to stop dry....
I had two more rhubarb plants arrived.
Gardening Gloves On Again!
Time to pot them with the other two.↓
 Coffee and nibble time↓
 I had some time on my hands,
So I repaired our front gate.
The new gate is arriving Saturday.
 Front of the house is looking nice↓
 Goes up to do other job.
No cake until Lent!↓
 I came back to coffee and a quiche made by my youngest son at school↓
 We nip to Morrisons...
Couldn't resist....↓
Third time lucky for the Gardening Gloves.. 
It was soon put in the ground.
Now to do a tasty chicken stir fry↓
I have my fingers and toes crossed for tomorrow as Sexy Beast is having his MOT done...
