sore aching bones
« on: January 24, 2006, 18:43:22 »
 worked so hard this weekend (see the photos )
Now I need to get all these weeds and roots out for Easter to plant the tatties.
Any advice, other than sheer hardwork broke my fork today.

um ... can't see photos ?
To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven: a time to be born and time to die: a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted.     Ecclesiastes, 3:1-2

Take it little and often to spread the work, and plant somehting soon so you can see some reward.

Still time for garlic for instance.

buy a new stronger fork ;D some carrots start in February and i think you can do some tomatoes at home ready for when you get the weeds out (i think people call it motivation ) all the best by the way i cant find your photos

Work your way up slowly don't do too much in one go. Each year I will dig and then go do some tidying up etc then get back to the digging and build the time up slowly.  :P

If you are not used to it, do not dig for more than twenty minutes at a time and build up slowly. You are far better doing little and often than one massive effort. ;)
