  • Hello Forkers and evening

    Been out in front garden today planting as much out as I could 12 plants in and leaves removed from ground ready to make more leaf compost for this year dug up soil in some parts and added homemade compost around the catalpa tree (indian bean tree) and where new plants went in the fern and mahonia and had 3 buckets of sieved soil with lots of stones mostly stones to put back onto garden around plants done garden gloves very dirty

    got wet a few times as sunny some times and then sudden rain

    Came in later clean up when finished noticed I had lots my earring in garden looked around a lot found earring great just lost the earring back, will be searching around garden for that in daylight, damn thing walked over most of garden area

    extremely wet at mo 

    Bilje - does happen that way you do something in the garden then find another to do or end up doing an extra thing not on the list

    Glad you found your earring Gg.
  • Found that bit on the path/drive way towards back garden lucky as only a stud - just to find other bit, shame about you ring diamond think all that gardening done and then you lose something what a pain will be on the search some time

    Don't need Time team in the garden as think I have done enough digging of me own found a few lime bricks under soil and some marbles and a old coin and a spoon nice old spoon and lots of bits of glass. they would make a right mess

  • Just watching Timeteam Gg image a Special on the Staffordshire Hoard - they've been comparing and contrasting it with the Sutton Hoo Treasure which is very close to where my family live -  and recently  I've been listening to the late Seamus Heaney reading his translation of Beowulf  on R4 and I must visit Sutton Hoo again next year - a wonderful place image

    Oh Fidget that sounds awful, do you have a wheat bag to warm and help you? As a fellow bad back sufferer I will admit to you that I may love my wheatbag more than my partner. You can make them ever so easily and use them alongside a TENS machine (just don't have it so hot you sweat less you'll find your TENS machine goes a little buzz happy).

    Keep moving gently,  I hope you're tucked up somewhere comfortable.

    Feeling bad as no gardening done in this house (garden) image following all of your efforts today. Instead I have been making snowballs (Pom Poms). A guiders work is never done! 

    Also make some gingerbread men - any takers? image
