So – last Thursday we sadly said goodbye to Michelle & Co. wandered home and sat in our largely empty house, and after about 30 minutes we decided it was way too quiet!! lol
But my other sister, Rosemary fixed that problem. Pretty much just after we had noted how quiet things were, I got a message from her asking if we could take Emma for a week, starting Sunday!!!
Nothing like a 16 year old to liven up the place and stop us from getting too old and boring! 😀
So I drove off to Devonport this morning to collect our niece (I am thinking ‘Garden Slave’) and brought her home, where we gained extra Aunty & Uncle points by taking her to the beach and then coming back to a late bacon & eggs on toast lunch.
The other day we noticed quite a lot of agate on the beach – more than we would normally find so we decided to skip the gardening and fossick for a while
We got some lovely rocks today – here are a few dodgy photos I took in a hurry as it was getting pretty chilly by the time I got around to that!
I dipped them in water to get a bit of the effect I hope to get when I put them through the tumbler…
Thats just a few of the many we found today – I think they have potential to come up really nicely once polished!!
So – despite the forecast being rain ALL WEEK, I have plans to get back into the garden tomorrow – and with an extra set of hands, well… the sky is the limit! 🙂
Hope your weekend has been brilliant!
Cheers!
