"Just helping"!

Thankfully Mr T only poured his coffee in his bowl to wash up the toast crumbs.  He said it came out a bit faster than he expected!  That sort of set the tone for the day but it could have been worse.  

I had a couple of hours in the garden while the sitter was here which was nice and I managed to get the acer tree and chosiyia into a pot but the holly bush fought every root of the way and I don't think will survive.  I've got four more plants to move but they are in raised beds and should be much easier.

Our old next door neighbour dropped in this evening and it was lovely to see her.  Her eldest son is doing amazing at school apparently and top of his year in maths, second in science and high up in English.  When they first moved here he used to get so frustrated as he'd "never know any big English words".  They are such a lovely family and far and away the best neighbours we've had in our 20 years here.
