Hellebores

This morning we went into Bishops’ Stortford town, before going to Wickes to purchase the wall tiles for the bath and shower rooms. We also had an appointment with a kitchen designer, who in just over an hour produced, first time the kitchen with the items exactly where we wanted them. Houdens have now had three attempts and still not got it right! We went to Homebase who we have also asked to design the kitchen. We left them with our sketch and plan as we did not have time to stay and do it with them today; we will go back on Saturday to see what they have come up with.

We also found the perfect garden furniture, which will fit exactly where we want it to in the garden. Our current smaller table and four chairs will be refurbished by my husband and will then be placed on the balcony.

After we arrived home the furniture for the bath and shower rooms arrived. It is fortunate that we were home, as the builders had not said it was coming! Dan, the boss of the steelworks, who fitted our balcony also visited, as a social call, to see how the work was progressing and to have coffee.

Today’s picture is of some of the Hellebores in the garden, we seem to have pink and white ones flowering this year.
