It started off with time to do something I love- gardening. I picked a few peas, planted some more vegetable seeds (tomato, broccoli, watermelon, lettuce and cauliflower) and moved some of those beautiful petunias that we had in tube for the wedding.
It was while I was pruning a melaleuca (I think that's what it is!) that this butterfly came to check out what I was doing to his food source:
It was at that point that Margaret's cousin Wayne and his wife Debbie dropped in for a quick cup of coffee that lasted two hours. It was lunch-time then, and after lunch I got to back to the gardening. I found time to plant out some of the bearded irises that were meant to provide much colour for the wedding but sadly failed.
After fixing some weirdness in Margaret's email software, I was about to go for my much-loved but sadly missed daily walk when our mate Lew from Moree turned up for another quick cup of coffee that went for another two hours. The peas I picked in the morning went nicely in the evening stir fry!
It is great to catch up with unexpected visitors, even when they disrupt our plans!
