Presents from Afar...

I'm sure Colin will be heartened to know that whilst I'm away for the week I have been thinking of him and have been out and bought him one or two gifts just for him..

First up was the "cultivator" - an implement to help him plant the potatoes etc..

Then I  chose a spring, so that he can repair the long loppers...

Next I bought some fleece covers so that he can nip outside and cover up my delicate plants when there's a frost...

I thought he might like some more pea netting and strawberry netting to help him protect the crops...

Then there's a new visor so that he can do some more strimming and a piece of trellis which he can use to replace the one behind my rose bush.....

But I've not been totally selfless.. I thought I'd get a little something for myself after all these things for Colin, so I went and got this..

Colin will get the benefit of it too, I'm sure, so it's not really just for me.............................

Good choices!
Did you also buy a trunk to ship the gifts back to France?

Well, Gaynor, Colin is going to have to make a trip over here in the car to take all his presents back!
