    I know! Some folk just aren't proper gardeners! However,  my cut is healing and finger hasn't fallen off!

    I’m relieved to hear that @WonkyWomble 😊 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Morning people. We woke to a foggy day today, but it cleared up to a very nice day.  Best wishes to everyone.

    Me too @Dovefromabove!!
    Hi @Pat E, it's overcast here,  hoping it will clear later as I haven't stopped all weekend! It would be nice to get in the garden

    Good morning everyone, what a chatty lot you are this morning! Perhaps we all feel a bit brighter as the weather is a tad warmer? It's rather like "The Waltons" at the start of the day instead of at night time  :)  I pricked out tomato seedlings yesterday and I have Zinnias to pot on today. My neighbour who shares my GH came into it yesterday while i was in there, shut the door and walked straight up to me no mask no distancing, I was mortified as I have been so careful in the past year and keep my distance when she is in there, she really has no idea about all of this. OH told me off for not having my mask  with me in there, you really do have to be so careful in all situations!
    Happy gardening folks   B)

    I’m going ok Hosta, thanks. Still waiting for the final closure of the head wound, but I’m eagerly waiting for it to close. I desperately want to wash my hair.  It feels like there are nits crawling around up,there. 😳 it’s creepy to be relaxing on a chair and then need to get my hand up there to reposition a random hair that has got caught somehow.  Yuk.  
    I hope your finger hasn’t got permanent nerve damage. From what you’ve said, it’s a bit strange. Maybe time will sort it out.

    Update, especially for Dove, Friday night said chappy rang could I take strawberries, blackberrys, with paper in the morning,and knock for the money. Said yes,I needed to speak to him anyway.Knocked, waited ages, wasn't going home and back, frozen food in the car.Put stuff on doorstep, receipt through letterbox.He hasn't rung. So I wrote,kept it to the point,that I had been happy to help but was spending £25 a month, appreciate that he can't get cash,but son could have paid me,and that I was no longer doing it.Hubby was saying explain I'm only getting pension ( he isn't) he knows this,..I did a photo copy in case of awkwardness

    Morning all,  @Dovefromabove, I have said before, that I regularly wash my hands in water from the butt on the Allotment.  Especially between November and April when the stand pipes  are off. The difference is I use soap, and I don't do it when I have just smashed my finger open with a sledgehammer.  Not being mean @Hostafan1, I took your warning onboard and did what @WonkyWomble did last time I injured myself. 🙂 I have a small first aid kit in my shed, it's on a  shelf just inside the door so it's accessible immediately.  I  never bothered in the past but realized from what happened to Hosta that I needed to play safe for once.
