Just got back and its been a good day... work through the bits of drizzle that did come but the sun soon dried us off again....

given everything a good weed and bit of nutrient feed and even got time to collect some free chippings from the park and make a smart path into the compost area!!!

Check me out eh!!  Sure the miserable seceratary will have a moan about it tho.... what I dont know but he aint happy unless he is moaning!!!  

Or is that just men typically  :tongue2: ....  lol

Off to find a local boozer for some grub now as nothing in lottie is ready  :cry:  bar a handful of little salad potatos....  but hey..  Rome was not built in a day!!

Tra for now,

3 hours today, 11 - 2.30, made a manure pile (layered the donkey poo with sawdust/chicken poo mix out of someones chicken shed ), made a classic runner bean frame and planted it up, dug another bed ready for the mass planting of all the stuff i got in pots in the greenhouse, they will all be ready to go next weekend :D PSB, Rodeo Cabbages, sweetcorn, turnips, and rows of spinach in 1.5" guttering :D  Just as we decided to call it a day, the clouds gathered and there was a heavy shower, watering it all nicely.

I got rained on and mowed the grass again, its growing almost a foot every week, raining every night and sunny most of the day.
Except weekends, when it rains all day.

Plenty of mulch I suppose
We use chemicals in this garden, just as god intended
