Still going . .

The third hyacinth bulb's stem is now almost done and dusted. I am amazed at the wonderful colours that show in these drying photos.
In extra - yippee - the men came and found the leak.  It was under the house somewhere. Thankfully they were able to put another pipe inside the broken one and fix it carefully so there is no leak. However, they did not change the bit from the house to the meter so hoping that does not wear too and they have to come back.  They only do what the insurance tells them. Lovely to watch the water meter standing stock still after how it has been twirling recently!
Huge, huge thanks to you all for the many stars/hearts for my wonderfully behaved sandpipers blip yesterday! They are all very much appreciated as are your very kind, complementary words.
