WAITING GAME..............

 Not a lot to tell, but we are still waiting for our car to be fixed and just don't know when that will be.          A quick catch up on my lovely Sunday at DD's with a tasty BBQ lunch & a few presents.  Lucky me.   We went across in the Morris & Master L who is now 15, had actually never been for a ride in it and was so chuffed when we all went to Bunnings & Pop took him in it.  The smiles said it all.

A few photos follow of  bits'n'bobs I captured yesterday.

My visitor first thing Monday morning and he sat for quite a while.  The photo was taken through the kitchen window as I didn't want to disturb him in case he flew off before I could take the snap.

My camellia called Volunteer has it's first open bloom.
Isn't she beautiful.

Freesia foliage appearing in the front garden bed.
It was a very murky day yesterday, so not the best photos. 

    

Part of my Mothers' Day present were the 2 small plants on the right & the two on the left were my own splurge while at  Bunnings Garden Centre.  I made the mosaic pot many years ago when I was a volunteer at our Vision Australia day program.  This photo & the 2 that follow were taken on the verandah potting bench with our weather screen stuff  behind which seems to make the background very blurry.

A few bits I've been playing with lately. The small white urn was purchased at Rusted Garden Art which I blogged about last month.

My old macrame hanger which I made in the 80's while living in Batlow and not used for many a year, now sports an old container & a few plants I hope will soon fill out.

The corner isn't quite as colourful, but still looks OK with a few things waiting to be either potted or go in the garden.  We aren't quite on top the garden with ideas coming to halt until we have the car fixed and see how it hit the finances.😔

The long terracotta pot (above) and the gorgeous carved timber container (below) were both picked up from a nearby reclamation centre for next to nothing and silly me just couldn't leave them.
I'd forgotten to take any photos when we acquired them and I'm about to plant up the long one with a few wayward forget-me-not plants growing near the blueberries.

This post came about because of these two presents & also why I got the Bottle Baby plants.  My granddaughter bought me the bunch of tulips and DD gave me the book so I can have a go at terrariums.  I did try once and not very successful, so watch this space.

One last photo, in case some of my followers haven't seen the Morris which I've been talking of a bit lately.

And.......with it's own quilt I made way back in the very late 80s for our black Morris sedan we used when the kids were young. Sadly we no longer have that one and
five of us definitely wouldn't have fitted in the ute(lol), which was our later project.

OK, enough of my babble today and I will be back on Friday for the photo hunt.

Thanks for reading, take care, stay safe and huggles.

Susan.
