Today started with a walk down the lane with the dogs.
We got back home at close to eleven o'clock and agreed that it was an awkward time. It was too soon to have lunch, but too late to make a start on anything time consuming. As a result we drank coffee and pottered for the rest of the morning.
My pottering activity was to fill two wheel barrows with mulch in preparation for planting this afternoon.
That sentence pretty much makes the rest of this Journal entry redundant. Yes, the afternoon was spent planting, watering and mulching the herbaceous border. I also revised the positions of a few plants* that had clearly been planted in the wrong place.
We still have spaces to fill, but I now need to be patient to see whether our design develops in to a work of art or a dog's breakfast!

* Mostly smaller plants placed too far back from the front of the bed. These included a couple of hardy geraniums and a dwarf Knifophia.
