I am mucky and scratched but happy. New fruit bed cleared and weeded and one feijoa evicted from polytunnel and then joined in the new bed by a blackberry and a purple gooseberry. One mulberry bush planted in another bed. Two blackcurrants still to move and then a seep hose and a mulch of chipped bark to lay but it's very slow going - tho entertaining - with 6 chooks pouncing on every spade and forkful so they'll have to wait till Friday now.

Sounds like you enjoyed your day Obelixx - as the chooks.
I have just spent a couple of hours trying to understand how to transfer my family history files (all 37 of them!) onto a USB stick before I have to sent the laptop away for repair. Watched a couple of Youtube videos but none the wiser. It doesn't seem to be very intuitive to me.
Finished weeding and digging the bed I'm renewing, planted a climbing rose, Crown Princess Margareta, and 2 other roses, Lady Emma Hamilton and Marie Curie. Tomorrow I'll plant the rest of the plants I have for it.
P came round to lead the donkey around the paddock. He was much easier today.
