Could someone please remind me of the date..

I cant believe its flaming June...it feels like October .It looks like our hosepipe ban is going to be lifted very soon not that we actually need to water anything.
Had my utilities bill today my electricity monthly payment needs to go up my gas can come down so i think i have evened out.Just don't quite know how come we use so much electricity.

Whilst other half cooked dinner i made a curry in a hurry sauce to freeze, 4 bags of hopefully lovely curry sauce all made with store cupboard ingredients,here's the recipe taken from another blog i follow.

OH was rained off this afternoon so he came with me to Tesco to take back a paper shredder i had purchased that was useless.Ive changed it for a better one which actually shreds paper. The smallholder who we got our hens from recommended shredded paper in the nesting box and as we get loads of junk mail its another way to recycle it.We also stopped at a tyre firm where i asked if i could take a couple of old tyres which he didn't mind at all.Ive now stacked these on top of each other ,filled with compost and planted some leaks in them.( thanks Sue i pinched this idea from you)
I'm actually missing being able to potter in the garden, i wander up in the morning to look, flowers are coming on the cucumbers but not much else is happening.

Until later

    Thanks for the link, I never get the taste of homemade curries (or shop bought) quite how I want them so will give that a go, did you taste it?

    I introduced tyres to my sister many years ago who lived in an old victorian 2 up 2 down terrace with a small concrete back yard. She thought she would never be able to grow things. Whilst she was alive, she really enjoyed growing tomatoes, beans and flowers in them.
