First time in a couple of weeks I have actually been able to do anything as ground has been so wet.
Anyway finished digging the beds over - so all ready for the season. Although as I am taking on an additional plot - more digging to come. Its a good job I enjoy it.
Planted my shallots - a bit late I know but I didn't want to put them out ahead of the really bad weather.
Cut down the autumn raspberries.
Tidied around the fruit bushes.
And began clearance on the corner of the plot which has been neglected. Now have a pile of old carpet/rubbish including a load of broken glass that I need to ferry to the tip. Will cover this area for a year or so before i start to cultivate it.

Helped son clear his overgrown plot...had a huge bramble bonfire, it was a bit blustery though and I managed to singe all of one side of my hair and an eyebrow off! ::)
I've just trusted my 15 year old daughter to trim my hair for me...I only had it cut on Friday! She did a good job! ::) ;D ;D ;D

Thanks Suzanne you've just reminded me...must cut down Autumn raspberries!
Today i was working on the bed for more autumn raspberries but when i got half way down my nice patch of sandy soil ran out and became the clay the rest of my plot is like and it is too sticky to dig and weed!

Had another dig at our daughter Bunjy's plot. She will be coming up tomorrow so it will be a nice surprise for her to see that she hasn't got so much to do. Marked and mucked the patch for the sweetcorn, Bagged up some dried weeds for the tip.

You are lucky you know what teasels are. What are dicentra spectabilis, if they are good I want some. Ignorant from Enfield. Are teasels what they make hair brushes from!!!.
