Pepie dies

Pepie was run over on the busy road outside Mums place on Monday afternoon.

I washed his blood off the road on Tuesday morning. His little body was collected for cremation by Pets In Peace. It has been a terrible ordeal. I couldn't bear to take a photo of any part of it.

It rained a little

Potted flowers for morale + updates

Potted stripey petunias and some pansies this morning, to try to make the front more appealing. Hope for the future!

Petunias now beginning to flower -  I do like the stripey and flowery ones.
