Small Dahlia

One of two I bought at Aldi this morning for the princely sum of £1.49 each!!  They were all very dry.  Happily my two have now livened up a bit after some water in the shade :)

I just love the stripey effect :)

Apart from a lie in, shopping for food and reading my kindle with my feet up I have hardly done anything today.   (I may even have had a 'nana' nap this afternoon, much needed after another poor nights sleep :( )

The weather wasn't too good to start the day, and positively chilly, but this afternoon the sun broke through and it was warm enough to sit in the garden :)

Cooked sea bass and roast potatoes to have with salad for dinner this evening.

I am not a football (or eurovision these days) fan, and was very glad to find that Hidden Treasures of the National Trust have started a new series on Saturday evenings on BBC2.  I am about to watch it on iplayer :)
