took verbena cuttings, transplanted sweet peas and tried, once again, to make plug plants out of these d**n livingstone daisy seedlings, I've transplanted 200 into plug plants so far and still have a quarter to go, very frustrating, small, crispy stems :o ;D

weeded under three plastic covered areas which were sheltering overwintered leafy vege crops.

Hervested some Parsnips and Leeks.

Tidied up the Strawberry bed and turned over a bit of land. It was a very nice day and good to be able to get back on the land.

Planted some autumn fruiting raspberry canes, and a goosebury bush. Had a go at pruning my blackcurrant bushes as per the book, but they don't look anything like the illustrations :-\ The lovely weather brought all my plottie neighbours out. John mowed the path, Jim strimmed my edges. Had a gossip and came home to finish the front garden which looks a darn sight better now. ;D Hoping to get on with the back garden tomorrow, weather permitting.

Went to the garden centre then spent the afternoon in the greenhouse. Sowed basil, parsley and corriander for the kitchen windowsill, and sowed the first French beans in modules, peas in a length of guttering and leeks. Looking forward to getting to the allotment tomorrow if the weather holds up. Not sure how much work will get done though as the warmer weather will bring everyone out with plenty of chat to catch up on.......

A bit more tidying yesterday. Plot all ready for planting now. Going up today for the A.G.M. and to pick some PSB for our dinner. All our seeds are doing really well, Am having a job keeping up with them. Have to sow some more Toms this afternoon cos other daughter Sally is getting herself a GH and will need some ready made plants. Will have to look through seeds again to see if I have missed anything

Rained off now, so It's back to hanging wallpaper... ::)

Well, I still haven't started my toms Simsgirl, watch out for the retired... they make us feel bad by spending lots of time on the lottie...
I keep telling our AGM that we should charge pensioners more rent, as they get more out of it... ;D
