A job I left to last as I dislike doing it as I always seem to get a difficult one. The problem was my mother had a stump of a cut down
Cercis silaquastreum. She is awaiting a delivery of some new plants especially an Australian Bottle Brush or
Calistemon citrinus 'Splendens' to finish of the Garden with. So I had to get this stump out, and back fill it ready for planting. That was easier said than done. I managed it in the end and the hole is now back filled awaiting the new plant and some others for the other side of the Garden.
Yesterday they announced there may be flash floods, but I took no notice. It has poured down all night and is still going strong. Our little Fire Brigade Station up the road has been busy all night with lots of call outs to rescue people caught in it, and basements flooded out etc. They have been really busy, so it seems like the weather people got it right for once. They have just announced on the Radio that we had the amount of rain we normally get in a month in one night, no wonder the Fire Brigade was busy and still is.
Regards.
Neil.
