Did a bit more digging, some more digging, applied more chicken poo, finished pulling the brussels (tops for lunch tomorrow).

Tomorrow will be moe digging.

Oh and was given some parsnips - we'll have those for dinner tomorrow as well.

Planted the first of this seasons brassica, a row of caulies! Then netted them from the woodies and ordered Julian to move from the spring greens to look after them!

If you want to be happy for a short time - get drunk.

If you want to be happy for a long time - fall in love.

If you want to be happy forever - take up gardening!

Looked alot at my asparagus which chucked some heads up over night )
I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

I actually got to the plot today  :) first time for weeks despite Noah in my son's bedroom (a case of the bursting fish-tank >:().

My sister managed the time to visit my parents so I snatched two whole hours ( :mellow:) of freedom from Sunday's usual work routine. [Should be working now.... :(]

Cleared the RB frame and dug a huge patch (better late than never).... left it looking clean and tidy for next week-end. Here's hoping for some dry weather over Easter.  ;)

4 days to retirement!!  :D
