Good morning Sunday 26th February 2023

Morning all!

It was damp and overcast on Saturday so no neighbor music in the yard. Yay.

I talked to my favorite person on the phone. We brainstormed some binge watch ideas. I purchased Peacock+ streaming service last night for a month. Had a fun time looking through the catalog of shows.

Plan for today is to find a binge worthy show and watch.

Have a good day everyone.

Morning all.

Have a good time Binge Watching Butterscotch.

Beautiful sunshine here with blue skies, but cold.
Nothing planned for the day, but might go out for a walk while the sun is shining.

Have a nice day all.

Good morning everyone, a bright start here but quite frosty first thing.

Just back from walking the dog, and now doing a few chores. We are going down to Leicester later for lunch with eldest son and family, who we haven’t seen for awhile so looking forward to a catchup.

Enjoy the day folks :blush:

Morning all.

Just sitting by the bedroom window, had my first cuppa and tablets, contemplating the day ahead. If it was warmer no doubt I could do a bit on the allotment, but I am still hoping my gardener can get over there with his rotator this week, clear some ground and then I can steam ahead with things. Waiting to get my little greenhouse and potting bench up. Too impatient for the better weather, me.

I might see if I can clear a bit of space in the back room so I can start a tray of sowing seeds indoors. I have everything to hand, apart from a small bag of compost. Itching to get going.

I had hoped not to go out spending but Wilko has them little greenhouses in stock, which I could put up just outside my back room window, where the sun appears late in the day. It has shelves, which would be ideal. I’d rather not have pots of compost indoors as some can harbour tiny flies. I had this issue many years ago, when I had an infestation and tracked it back to a bag kept in my hallway meter cupboard. This was in the flat, with no garden/no storage. Never again.

Enjoy your day.

Hi

Bright but cold, another sorting day looms.
Visitors this afternoon, which will be nice.

Have a good day all.

@Jazzi Soon it will be all systems go allotment wise. You won’t have tie to pause have you a plan/thought for what you want to grow?

Late the game. As usual. Did the usual stroll. Met a few pooches. One was new and very lively. Max just takes it in his stride. Then we had a very nice lunch with a lovely chicken roast. And some white wine.

I do indeed! I have a little box with all my seeds in, and just bought two more (broc and cauli).

So far,
carrot, courgette, cabbage, cauli, broc, kohl rabi, sweetcorn, turnip, broad beans, peas. Chives and parsley. Red and brown onion sets in, potatoes chitting upstairs. Later will buy some ready tomato and strawberry plants.

Outside in a bucket of water I have single canes of blackberry, raspberry and gooseberry. Waiting for roots to grow.

I did get the greenhouse, plus some compost and seed trays.
