Today we have had the first drop of rain since the airplanes stopped flying which I'm sure is just a coincidence but it's been nice to look up and see fluffy clouds instead of the long straight ones. Anyway the thing is, because rain was forecast I decided it was a good time to give the lawn a bit of a feed so after calibrating the spreader I got on with that job after lunch. I think it took longer to calibrate the spreader than it did to apply the feed so much so that there was enough time at the end of the day to plant 72 Geraniums in the South Front wall beds. It is still a bit early to be putting out summer bedding but Geraniums will stand a slight frost and we haven't been having anyway so I am risking it as the plants are ready to be moved on. This year all the plants for the South Front walls have been grown from cuttings taken from last years plants.
