It's been one of those days when the weather couldn't make up its mind. One minute blue skies and plenty of warmth then clouds would build up and a chilly breeze would make it feel quite cool.
I thought I'd finished with the bow saw and axe but before I could finally level the ground where the hedge had been I needed to make a few more adjustments to the tree stumps. That done I cleared all the wood and stones, dug out some docks and dandelions from the top of the bank and raked the ground to form an even slope. Then I mowed the grassy bank apart from the end where the primroses are and finally sprinkled grass seed on the bare areas.
Then I took advantage of the lovely weather and sat out by the conservatory with book, tea and cats. Later I did some mending of a sheet sitting at the garden table. Speedy couldn't understand why I wouldn't let him sit on my lap at the same time. It would have made sewing rather difficult.
Literally a few minutes ago I looked up from my pc to see this young stag on the back lawn. I took plenty of photos and he even stood and looked at me while I (in my mad old lady way) talked to him through the window. Then as I don't want deer in the garden eating all my plants I walked around from the front door and gently encouraged him to leave.
