Morning all you chatterboxes. Yesterday was a day of firsts. First morning I've driven to work with no headlights. First Sunday I've got to my last customer before dark. First Sunday I've finished EARLY !!
@Hostafan1 -- all reasons to be happy ! hope this week is similarly positive for you. @punkdoc - wishing you better and take it easy, enjoy your garden! @Dovefromabove -- i'll look at the cawl recipe and see if i can amend it for stuff we don't eat -- my OH might enjoy it! Everyone else ( late start can't tag you all !) enjoy the day and relatively mild week ahead and let's hope rain stays mostly away.
Today is cool, dark and wet. However they seem to think the sun will come out after all after lunch. No gardening either way as I'm off to see 4 patchwork pals at Olonne in a socially distanced, well-ventilated sort of way.
That looks like good digging and mulching @Busy-Lizzie. Frustrating for you @punkdoc but you have earned the right to sit and admire, I think. Just try not to fidget too much at what you can't get at.
OH has raspberry duty too @Allotment Boy but in his case it's cutting down old canes in the new bed and digging out the rest of the old plants someone before us plonked in what is now my trees and shrubs bed.
Glad you've had some rain @Pat E and hope it's cooler too. Photos @chicky?
Enjoy your day everyone.

Here you go @Obelixx ......a collection of random views ......I’ll do some more when the gravel mountain is miraculously transformed into paths 🧞♀️🧞♂️
Morning folks, just having a coffee and waiting to see what the weather might do. Very achey today after yesterday's pruning efforts - I knew I shouldn't have done it! I've got to arrange for the repair of my laptop and also ring the GP so I'd better get going. Hope you feel fitter soon @Punkdoc. Your new beds look very good @Bizzy-Lizzie and @chicky.

We usually make ours as my Welsh relations do, with a mix of lamb neck and bacon hock.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

That looks great, @chicky, you've worked so hard. The GH is beautiful, all worthy of a slot in "Gardeners World"!
Grey and windy, drizzle is forecast. Car is dusty again, more from the Sahara, but not orange this time.
