Lovely day here, too. Collected a car-load of hops from the brewery and unloaded them at the allotment. Dug out some more weeds, put up canes for my sweet peas and planted them out. Spread most of the hops- a car-load doesn't go far! and put some cardboard down for a path. A good day's work. :D

Digging out bindweed, couch grass roots and docks the only weeds left in the bit under black plastic for two years. The docks were at the edge so probably don't count.

Managed to start sorting out a base for my shed. Getting lots of well needed advice from the lovely guys on the site. Can't wait to put it up. :)

I sat in the office as I also did yesterday and fretted at such a glorious day going to waste with me not being out on the lottie. :'( Killer levels of frustration building.

Treated myself to a whole day down the plot as have finished my assignment..hurrah! ;D ;D ;D
Weeded and covered the potato beds with black plastic to warm the soil for a week or two before planting, weeded the raised beds, cut down the raspberry canes..(at last!) just in time, they are starting to sprout! Did a few repairs to the willow den, the top needed tying in again. Found out mice have been in a box of maincrop potatoes and had a right old munch!! They haven't touched the ones out chitting!? So I've moved them and hung them up where they will hopefully be out of harms way...... ;D

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....🥴

planted some more spuds in containers and generally finished weeding my raise beds of any weeds that survived the winter (there weren't that much) and also removed a couple spent beetroot plants which didn't grow anything decent to the compost bins.
was planning to get more done but none of the planned work was going to be heavy sweat producing work and it was getting too cold so came in for lunch and called it a day. isn't it funny when its a warm day and i can feel myself getting hungry i mentally tell my stomach to bug**r off and the hunger simply goes away and i blissfully continue gardening for hours on end (almost resenting any breaks i have to take) but a day like this and there is no way I'm able to ignore my hunger :-\.

Just been out and burnt the mountain of branches that had accumulated from having some boundary hedges laid.... some to**er had hidden some "fibre-board" type stuff in the middle... when I realised it wasn't burning I fished it out and watered it. Some sort of "mesh" woven into it... hopefully glassfibre and NOT asbestos... will get the council "hazard" men to have alook at it...

Down the lotty for the first session this year, cleaned up what weeds I had with the mantis, prepared the ground for my spuds next month and planted several rows of broad beans back for another go tomorrow, :)
