Oh my days, it's time to break out 3 pairs of knickers. It was so cold this morning, I had to go out 15 mins early to defrost my car. The boys were happy inside watching TV and I was sitting shivering in my car waiting for the windows to defrost, but the job is done and when it came time to go to school we were able to get straight off.
I have a silver back cover to put on the car windscreen and it works brilliantly. I have been putting it on the car at the end of last week and saved a lot of hassle. But as the weekend meant that I wouldn't be going out early I forgot to put my car to bed properly last night hence the palaver this morning, that is something I won't be forgetting to do again.
Having talked to my gardener yesterday I have been advised to wrap up my new fig tree with garden fleece to protect it from the cold and frost. So this morning I have been out wrapping and pegging said fig tree, I hope that it will survive the cold winter. Only spring will let me know that. I was hopeful that my gardener would be able to come and finally put the last of the garden to bed for the winter, but he has been ill over the last few weeks, so, I am guessing that if I want any more tidying up done I will have to do it myself. That being said it will have to wait for a much warmer day before I venture out haha.
I have been spending this afternoon putting up the rest of Christmas at the Jungalow. I intended to do it at the weekend but I have been co-opted into helping Sarah with her trees. I still have a few more bits to put out but the Jungalow is looking very festive. On the stairs leading to the Princess Tower I have placed the Kevin the Carrots and his family which I have been collecting over the past 5 years haha. Sorry if the pictures are a bit dark but yet again I am without mains lighting. Beginning to feel very Dickensian with the lack of illumination.
