Brilliant night's sleep after taking serious pain relief for my back and felt a million times better this morning, thank goodness. Went to the garden centre again after work. Lovely day here and the two day's of fog has disappeared.
 
14 Siskins, 1 Chaffinch, House Sparrows, Blackbird and Collared Doves at my feeders this evening. Planted two pine trees in the largest ceramic pots I could buy at the garden centre and stood them either side of the front gate pillars. I will be planting a packet of wild flower seeds into three tubs over the next few days, but need to cover them with something, a piece of glass or something until they have sprung into action.
