Went to the plot today nice and early cos they said the forecast was good. It didn't brighten up till lunchtime. Still managed to get a bit done. Bunjy penned the kids up and managed to dig over 3 beds, meanwhile I continued to shift my muck. It's like a bloomin cut and come again cake. We dont expect to get up there again this week cos its gonna rain.

very envious of your poo heap. :)

I thought it was great but it's certainly taking some shifting. It was enormous. We won't need anymore for a couple of years

Like Sarah, love the poo heap! :D Sun was shining here too, so also went digging! Love the little row of chairs for kids- so sweet! Are they always that well behaved or just when armed with crisps?!!

Are those children glued to those seats!! ;D

I know what you mean about huge manure piles, I've only just tamed mine and spread it where it was needed (just about everywhere) and I got it the week before Christmas! ::)

I also was at the lottie today while the sun shone, work rang me up yesterday and asked if I could swap a shift and work today instead of Friday........course not! Don't be silly, it's going to be sunny tomorrow! Don't they ever look at Metcheck! Huh! ::)

Best place for the little B****rs. You should hear my Tony when they walk on the dug ground. He's just like a sergeant major. Get orf that b****y garden. The poor little S**s run for their lives.hahahahaha. Then when he's not looking they say "stupid grandad". They are only two and a half. I hate to think what will happen if they try it on when they're bigger

Great pics Shirl. I bet if truth be known they can wind Grandad round their little fingers. I am really jealous, can,t wait to get out in the garden and greenhouse. Not 100% yet and don,t want to undo all the good.
Lorna.

Sods law says it has been good when i have gone back to work.

Looking at metcheck we are only going to get 1decent day and thats Thursday when I have to take me Mom to get her hearing aids fixed. Talk about sods law. Still we are embarking on cleaning the old greenhouse out this week, that should keep us out of mischief. And Lorna I hope you will be feeling up to getting out by the time the sun comes out again love,

I agree that the kiddies look as though they're superglued Deb ;D What a fabbo picture 8) What's the security like at the site Shirl? Any chance of me sneaking in with a low-loader one of these nights? Can't see you missing any of that muck. Really envy you that pile of gold :)

Bunjy will willingly give you half of hers to save her shifting it.

I am so jealous, i would love to have been outside today instead of in the office, day dreaming, planning that from next Monday i will be able to nip up to the plot for an hour after work.....can't wait till then.
When you say the grandchildren are 2 1/2 do you mean all of them, are they triplets?

shirlton · « **Reply #16 on:** March 06, 2007, 17:13:04 »

No. they are a set of twins and the dark lad is about 9 monts older. They have caught him up though.

We have been on the allotment all day today. Put up my canes for the sweet peas, sewed some parsnips, carrots and larkspur and sprinkled a load of wild flower seeds on the plot next door which isn't ever gonna be let. Im hoping to create a meadow (I did say hoping). Tracy has put her strawberries in and sewn some carrots and started to shift her muck at last. It was blotting out the sun.lol Hope to go again tomorrow. Depends on the weather. Nearly forgot to tell you Bunjy has a robins nest in her old shed
