I spent some time today redoing my little front garden and it's looking quite nice. I removed a Protea which was getting a bit too large and put in 2 rose bushes instead, ones that won't get too tall. I also added a border of white Petunias and renewed the red mulch which really sets it off.

We had a lovely day when the family came over for dinner - the food was really delicious thanks to the chef (me). We had roast chicken, roast beef and ham with roast potatoes, peas, carrots and corn and not forgetting the gravy. For dessert I'd made a trifle and also a Scottish Clootie Dumpling and Jackie (daughter) brought over a chocolate ripple cake.......3 meats and 3 desserts, can't be beat!!! Everyone enjoyed their gifts and the boys, who got scooters, managed to ride them quite well without injury.
