WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!

 It's taken 30 years but Liverpool FC have won the Premier League for the first time.  It still feels surreal.  A few weeks ago, we weren't even sure the season was going to restart.  They didn't get off to a perfect start for the game against Everton, but they wiped Palace off the park - they were so dominant, Palace didn't set foot in Liverpool's box, let alone have a chance to score.  ANOTHER record in a year when they've broken just about every record in the books, including points per game (played 30, won 28, drawn 2, lost 1).  OK, so it was Chelsea beating City that clinched it, but who cares?  LFC are back where they belong - at the top.

We have no idea when we'll get our homecoming - or even if/when the next season will start - but we are enjoying this moment.  Even the grandson was in tears, apparently.

In domestic news, the garden is coming along nicely.  The trip to the garden centre was very productive with grasses and alpines and a new conifer.  The grasses and conifer are in pots, so all the old pots are now in use - if we want to put anything else in a container, we'll have to buy one - and the alpines are settling into the gaps between paving stones and rocks.  And the Calendula have already started sprouting!  They will need to be spread out when they're a bit bigger, but I'm just happy they put their heads above ground.  Today I'm on the look out for a trough and trellis, and a Clematis that doesn't mind mostly shade.  Then I think we're done for a bit :D

And I got another story up at 70x700.

So, a successful week methinks!
