Actually got some brassicas in, but as I rubbed the muck off a label I managed to rub off the writing too ::), so I have a row of mystery greens!
I promised myself I would make notes of what I sowed this time, but I sowed different stuff, some from swaps so no packet. I'm sure all will be obvious sooner or later ;D
Also cleaned out my shed whilst weather was bad, so happy with that.

lovely day - it is now a sowing seed and potting on frenzy and some sowing in situ
still find working in the greenhouse a problem with the robin chicks but I reckon they'll have fledged by the end of the coming week - greenhouse is nearly full anyway
broad beans poking through, fruit blossom about to burst - the excitement gets me every time ;D

Planted out various types of lettuce under plastic bottles for a bit of protection, made another wigwam, strung it and planted out 'Show Perfection' peas, earthed up some more potatoes, then sat out in the sun for a bit! 8)

If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

Watered everything in my greenhouse,put up the post for my second bean row,bagged some rubbish and mowed the grass at the end of my plot with a nice little push mower I got from "freecycle"
Rain forecast for tomorrow so not sure if anything will be done on the plot.

Cam, you were lucky !!!
Today, I realised that it is "hoeing" that makes the difference.
And the insides of my right hand has blisters.....

I had a hot shower, some nice strong pain killers and a hot water bottle.
Managed to bring home some rhubarb, leeks and spring onions though.

Sorry you has a fall Cambourne hope you feel as good as new in the morning.
My back is aching like mad too from a really busy day at my lottie, planted out 2 1/2 large beds, got my final undug bed ready for planting, made my own poly & fleece tunnels, transplanted nasturtiums. Moved a rose bush. Phew! Got badly sunburnt on my shoulders & upper arms too :o The wind kept me quite cool so didnt realise I was burning ::)
Then I came home & cut my garden grass for the first time this year :o
I know Ive well & truly over done it but as bad weather is forecast for the next few days Ive got time to recover ;)

Dug and weeded, yet again! Then, spurred on by a freecycler wanting plants for his garden, finally dug up a Euonymus that had outgrown its space and some perennial sweet peas that have gone rampant!

Digging, put some toms in the greenhouse, more digging...and then a bit more digging before I went home... ;D

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

I spent the day in the greenhouse potting up plants and sowing seeds that had sprouted in the airing cupboard. I soon got out of there when the biggest bee I have ever seen flew in. I went indoors to have a bite to eat and when I came out it had gone. I did help a couple of other bees find their way out though.
My day was made though when a thrush perched high on the nearby apple tree and serenaded me. ;D ;D
