After the blackout

New secateurs are great. Gunned weeds on drive.
The square composter is full, and in a week I have emptied the round one to bins and refilled it, though it should compress somewhat.
All grass has been mown this week and I have cleared the rear fence and some of the east bed. Frogs throughout back garden.
Shady bed weeded, uncovered Japanese anenome hybrida Richard Ahrens. this reminded me to check the front garden where there is another, hybrida Monterosa. The latter is rising out of the soil, will add more compost.
Found, two primula (primulae, primulas?) on the grassy knoll and the rosemary.
Too late I have identified the scarlet lily beetles (they are lilioceris lilii) and learnt the effective way to discourage them - pick the critters off and squash them one by one. There is a good Royal Horticultural Society site.
Revised to do: Move water bowl to sunlight, pot fuschias and houseleek. Find site for bee nester. Trellis. Seed planting list.
Inside, one rack is now in the kitchen.
To do: Get plasterer for living room, curtains and rail for rear window, clear rear bedrooms, decorate hall, landing and stairs, clear bedroom chair and downstairs floors.
Virtually its still all to do. Flat screen for kitchen, OCR and voice recognition, newsgroup downloads. Second screen and keyboard. Links and characters in this blog.
Spooky was treated with Wilko cat flea drops this morning and is now sulking in the garden.
Onward.
I hope I never get so old I get religious.
