These four walls - Days 21 & 22

Friday was a quietish day after the emotional highs and lows of Auntie Gladys send off.


I pottered about in the garden making an Easter display near the front gate for passers by to come and say hello to.


We live on a country lane so I thought I might give folk a little smile with my bit of nonsense.  There’s a book and magazine box and some craft and games for anyone to pick up as they go by.


What’s been so lovely is people have left us daffodils, sticks of rhubarb, tulips and chocolates and today Saturday I found this card and sweet rhyme on top of the books.





Aren’t people kind.  We have so much to be grateful for in these sad times.  Now to make my rhubarb crumble and purée and take a stick down to Mum.


These little fellas won’t last in this house heehee.
We’ve a 1967 Tommy Steele film to watch tonight and vegetable & butter bean soup for tea.
No more cheap red plonk for the wandering welder,  it’s giving him a headache.

If you want a good read have a look at our friends blog.  Jon and Vix are really utilising their time during lockdown.

  1. How sweet is your Easter display! Even sweeter is your gesture of leaving a box of books, magazines and crafty things for passers-by. And haven't you got the most wonderful neighbours? I wish ours were like that. To the left, we had noisy music for most of the day, and the people on the right had visitors over today. So much for a quiet life at home! Hugs to you both from the two of us! xxx

    Aww, you're both so lovely, despite all the emotional upheaval of saying goodbye to Auntie Gladys you still manage to think of other people, leaving those books out for passers by and decorating the driveway, you deserve all that kindness. xxx
