DON'T PANIC!!!
« on: February 16, 2009, 13:42 »
After having spent the past two months browsing seed catalogues and impatiently waiting for growing seasons to kick in, I realised last night I have done nothing!

I have no seeds ordered, no potatoes chitting, barely any beds prepared, no space set aside for propogators and no real plan of attack to get everything underway!!

DOH!!!
Good beer, good BBQ and good friends.

I know what you mean Puravida  those seed catalogues are far too interesting - i've grown nothing yet except ideas :lol: must get down to something practical -  a trip to the local nursery is now planned for on way home tonight for seed compost.

It's not a case of panic here. Just that I can't garden when it's under snow or a quagmire. If it doesn't dry a bit soon I might get cabin fever and then I'll panic.  ::)

Ha.... Got in from work early, and headed straight for the Lottie,. Dug one bed over, and partially cleared me strawbs. Sorted a load of compost from my neighbour (freebie don't ask, plus the promise of a load of 2' x 2' slab surplus to requirements! ;)) What a brilliant day today! :tongue2: :D

Haha - thanks for the backup everyone!  :D

Off to bed now to browse even more seed catalogues !!!
I'm sure if I read them often enough, the seeds will just order and plant themselves!!!!!
