Where's our sun?

The sun has gone in,  the clouds are gathering all around,  quite gloomy looking out there at the moment,  and the forecast has rain from an hour ago till tomorrow evening.... :(  
  
So no swimming for me this afternoon,  and maybe no need to do any watering tomorrow,  it is our day for it but it might get done for us! 

We've had an outside tidying up week  and got some stuff thrown out,  which for us is unusual as we tend to keep more than we really need just in case.  It's sods law that the minute we have a good clear out then those things would have been useful but we have been a bit more thorough this time.  Take for instance the potting shed.  Piles of plastic trays kept from supermarket meat shopping,  they each hold 8 yoghurt pots for seedlings but are mostly all black plastic and we don't have many clear ones to use as lids.  So they've been paired up and the surplus thrown.  And  a pile of mismatched trays too,  none of which will stack or pair up as a bottom and lid so no use really -  I dropped 2 large bin bags of such stuff into the recycling on Thursday.  So now we have space in potting,  also J is hanging tools from the wall rather than the current  'just put it there'  arrangement.  He has been sorting out one of the sheds too,  lots of wood for making shelves and such like,  but no space to do anything! 

It always looks worse before it eventually gets better,    there's been lots of  'why did we keep this?'  and  'how long ago did we put this here?'  and  I've no doubt we'll be doing it again in a year or so.   But for now,  we have space!
