I read that the other day @Obelixx. You really couldn't make it up, could you?
Anyway - they're all going to be back at work by Easter, so nothing to worry about then. He's had a 'hunch' it's all going away in a few weeks. All ginger peachy then....
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I can’t read the Trump stuff, makes me too angry, I just skip over it.
In the Times Weekend section today, lots of features on the gardening during the coronavirus. All were exhorting us to BUY BUY BUY online, with no thought for the overworked delivery drivers or the fact than most are now closed. OK, lead times mean they were probably written early on, but if the news content can keep up, surely the features could get a quick edit. Oh and one company was recommended as the best for buying seeds... T&M. Another article by a writer that I usually admire, said the following. Note the second plug for T&M. Highly reliable, apparently:
Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
Re metrication- I have been saying from the start 2M ( 6ft 61/2 ins) is nearer 7ft in my book, if you want to be really safe then use a bean pole which at 8ft is 2.4 M.
My moan today is (I knew this would happen) having prayed for a dry week now because we have had high winds too, the top of the soil on my Allotment is like concrete already (well the bits I couldn't dig because it was too wet) grr.
Forgot to say when I was a Butchers boy the man I worked for priced all the orders I delivered in shillings so I had to convert them to £ and shillings to get the right money from customers. Headache or what!

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Never mind the virus so long as there's chocolate eggs

Maybe for once he could do us all a favour and lead by example.
