Yesterday I started in the garden at 9am and apart from 2 x half hour breaks worked until 6pm. So, what didn't I do? :) I weeded, dead headed, dug, planted, mowed the lawns and then did almost the same to young Lorna's garden next door. Finished up by watering both gardens, I really enjoyed my day, for once I had no pain with either my "dodgy" leg or sciatica. Wanted to get jobs done before I go off on Friday for my few days trip to France.

Too hot, did some watering, and talked to my friend. Got given some spinach, one courgette and picked some peas and carrots and sweet peas, raspberries and strawberries from my allotment. Saw Joe Swift doing some weeding, think they are going to be filming again soon, that is probably why he is getting rid of the mares/horsetail. (Someone said, 'are you going to film the weeds, not me but I thought it'. ) Got home to watch the tennis and feed the cat.

Not so much today as yesterday as have finally managed to chase off the "black dog" so:
emptied, cleaned & tidied the green house, potted up tomoto & capsicum plants
Sowed sweetcorn seedlings, french beans, peas, leeks, cabbage seedlings & carrots.
Took & potted on fuchsia pinchings.
Feel quite good with myself

noticed my kohl rabi, turnip, swede and purple radish are showing their heads above the soil, found a part of it dug by the allotment cat, i forgive it, not had much trouble with mice this year ;D
picked a couple of pounds of strawberries, peas, baby carrots and parsnips, pulled some shallots, fantastic year for them. Planted up some red bull sprouts, lettuce and calabrese, sowed some carrots and transplanted some lettuce little gem and cos into pots to get a bit bigger before i let them loose for the slugs ;D

Harvested beetroot, lettuce, shallots, red and white onions, strawberries, gooseberries, coriander and garlic, plus some sweet peas. Dug up a few first early spuds (Pentland Javelin) - good sized tubers but not many of them. Dug up the last of the Aquadulce broad beans. Sowed some cauliflower seeds and planted out some more parsnips and peas sown in modules. Also planted some Pink Fir Apple a friend didn't want - will be interested to see if they come to anything, planted so late. Mucky and sweaty, but happy, after a solid afternoon's work.
