The mint is the garden dies because the cat/s pee on it if that is any help. At the allotment I do not know. It is under the rosemary which has got much too big and I cut it back yesterday so hopefully the mint will grow soon. Anyway no great problem as can always get roots from next door, it seems to have left my garden and moved next door. I blame the cats. I also have ginger mint, or had it. Salad tonight with pots. and mint (from next door) sob sob.

This evening I sowed peas, beans and tomatoes (yes, I know, I'm a bit late with the tommy-farters). But I stood there at the garden wall (my potting bench) wondering why I left it so long, because I really, really love doing it. It's just so relaxing and satisfying, pottering away there (no pun intended :D ), wrist-deep in good compost, counting out the seeds and knowing there'll be something so worthwhile at the end of it all.

Spent a few hours over the last 2 days making a couple of hazel wigwams with some freebie poles OH got me. Very satisfying! Have earmarked one for sweetpeas and the other for my outdoor cucumbers!
Also planted seed onions (ailsa craig), peas (meteor) carrots (fleeced in a frame), beetroot and parsnips.
Ready for a hot bath now! ;D

Moved all me stuff out of Tones Tomato GH and down the garden to the old one. Washed loads of pots (nasty job) potted up 100 or more chrysanth cuttings.

Potted on a couple of dozen alpine strawberry plants that got terribly neglected over the winter, and am counting as a bonus that they are still alive.
