It's been such a wet and grey day today that I thought I'd cheer the post up with a garden shot from a couple of summers ago. (For those that are interested it's 2 hardy geraniums, the common Wargrave Pink and Roxanne.)The school day also ended on a depressing note as we had a presentation on 'safeguarding', the new term for child protection. We covered all aspects of child abuse from neglect to violence and worse, how to spot it and what to do about it in our professional roles. We also were given facts and figures on the numbers of children being abused in this country and some nasty case histories. Not nice at all.
I did manage to get out into the garden for a couple of hours this morning before the rain arrived. More leaf removal from the scree garden and a bit more of the ornamental grass bed dug over with roots, bindweed and a small ash tree removed. Hopefully I'll be able to get out there on the weekend.
