CYCLING ADVENTURE

In one of my last posts I mentioned getting my bicycle ready for riding.  then i happened to find something i  was missing for my bike,    a few accessories  like  tire pump,  and the tools. 

Found this handy set so will be all set for any flat tire issue....... i hope.



















SPRING THINGS

A new set of dishes for outdoors  is just what we needed . like the soft pastel shades and the fact  don't need to worry if they break.........
This set reminds me of spring and will add some colour to dining  al fresco. 

Next will have to find a nice table covering to set them on.  Some print perhaps?



 





PLUS more......... LAVENDER!

YES   I have an addiction for lavender!  L ast years plant is looking a bit straggly , so something GREEN with flowers is needed outside.  Somehow it never seems to grow back like this photo.  Any tips???

Have you planted lavender in your garden or on your balcony?

    Lovely post, I enjoyed hearing about your new bicycle. I have lavender in the garden, and my tip is to prune the tops of the shoots in springtime just as the new growth is coming through. They last up to about five years and then need replacing. They are a lovely plant and the smell is gorgeous. :-) xx

Pockets please!!/ fashion

  Well as the title says…. Pocket s please!  This week has been a very painful week. I recently injured my knee badly. Not able to move stand or walk. When finally bit better I finally  managed to move . I needed something to wear that I could put my phone in , glasses medicine in. Any dress I thought I could use didn’t have pockets for anything.  Why???  When I think back there usually  were pocket inserts nicely sewn  on inside of slacks or dresses.  Now you rarely find that .  I guess it’s a cost saving , less material needed and no extra time used sewing a pockrr er r in.  Maybe it’s to give an outfit a more neat look, no bulging pockets.   Meanwhile mens wear there are always pockets.  Do you like outfit with pockets?
