The weather over the past couple of weeks has been rather wet and miserable. Thankfully, we finally have some sunshine today which I have missed. Cuddles, my dear little cat is rather enjoying the sunshine today-over the past couple of weeks, I lost count of the times I got told off for not stopping the rain!

Over the past week we have had 126.8 mm of rain which is the usual monthly average for where I live. We have also had the worst storm I’ve had in years where we had no power for the best part of a day. It’s been interesting.

I now have a bit of a mess to tidy up outside, and my little pots and their plants have taken a rather big battering in the recent rain too! I will have to tidy up over the next week and pot up my plants again-it will probably next weekend before I get there, but that’s the plan.

I do still have some little cacti in the process of growing from seed, but they are still super small. Hopefully with some more sun, there will be more growth and more seeds germinating.

I also have a random cucumber growing from when the builders were around-I did sow some seeds in the spring but most disappeared without trace while the builders were here, except this one! I don’t know what it is as yet, but it is a nice surprise, even if I don’t get anything from it.

That’s a brief update on my garden for the weekend.
