I've bought my seed spuds, shallots and onions
Had my tin of packet seeds out and sorted them the other day
Tap, tap, tap, there goes my foot again.

Oh yes! Loads of plans, but can't start anything yet. At least we've got the chickens to bring a bit of life to the plot no matter how unworkable the ground is.

We're certainly champing at the bit here, we only got our plot a couple of weeks back, made a start on it just before the snow came. It hasn't been worked for a year so plenty of tidying up to be done, the fence needs upgrading to make it Rabbit proof. The small shed needed raising on blocks and some weatherproofing, luckily we were able to do that job before the weather got really bad.
There's a small greenhouse waiting to be fixed to a base and glazed.
So many things to be done and mostly put on hold :(

Ye gods what to do,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the last 2 years we have used our kitchen as a growing area,racks infront of the window and electric props on the side,so seeds were grown and potted on in that environment......so christmas comes along and jude wants the place carpeted....so me being me....yes dear....done....looks great, but yes you guessed it....no more growing stuff in the kitchen as she doesnt want mess all over the new carpet......were doomed says i !!!!!!!!!
We dont have a shed or garage with warmth or power to either im afraid,and the thought of growing from scratch in the poly @ 7 degrees doesnt lend itself to happy growing.......bummer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is gonna be the slowest growing season on record,I hope it bluddy well warms up a bit quick this year.....
anyway in between time im going over to put some polycarbonate panels in the GH as im bored picking up glass fragments from breakages that we cant explain......

I try to enjoy the time off and try to do other things. Sometimes it is a pleasure not to be tied to the plot.
However I am recovering form an op at the moment so I can't do anything much of anything.
I did pot up a few chilis yesterday and may get some onions on if I can get to the garage for compost but I generally take Dec - Feb off..
