The Bag Lady

Sue has been closely watching the weather forecast and morning frosts seem to be getting nearer.  So, even though flowers are still blooming, she has started lifting the geraniums to dry and store then as she did last year.

We had to go to buy more bags (and I'm hoping 100 will be enough.  We never do things by half!)

Sue's efforts have been rewarded as, this morning, we have our first frost.

Meanwhile, despite my efforts to now concentrate on working on the house, I have been preparing the courtyard lawns for reseeding.

Normally we have to go to the Recycling centre a number of times to fill plastic boxes with compost, but we have been lucky this time.  First of all we were at the decheterie when we met some English friends who brought home a trailer load for us, and then yesterday JJ helped me with his trailer and we went twice .  But still not enough!  We'll be there again tomorrow.
