Started to chop down some bushes on my plot. Got very sore upper arms now. Had to start stripping off layers as time went on. Better than going to the gym i've decided. :) :)

We go down to Hartlepool, The Bason for duff ( coal dust ) and Marine drive for coal cos they are easy carry offs

Had a great day today at the allotment. Put the wiire netting around the broad beans and sowed some more in the gaps. I didn't put them in till Nov so the germination rate wasn't as good,(me own fault for going on me hols in Oct) the birds were singing altogether a lovely day. Hoping to go again tomorrow.

I planted 15 Rocket seed potato's under a cloche that as been over some ground for well over 2 month now. I know it is well early but i think it may be worth the risk, they will obviously be kept under the cloche which will have some fleece put over it as well.....Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Spent all afternoon in the garden yesterday- too cold in the house but soon warmed up outside! Did lots of tidying in the greenhouse and garden- just hope I didn'y get too carried away as it was frosty last night. Spotted some rat holes heading bfor the cellar- guess what OH is doing today!
