Good morning all sounds like a good evening all round - OHs snoring on sofas and gardeners in pubs Just as it should be (I usually get it the wrong way around )
I shall make the bolognese this morning and leave it chuntering in the slowcooker, and prep the pud and leave it ready to pop in the oven when I get back this afternoon, as I've a visit to see the Aged Ps planned for later today.
Sharp frost here last night, and Hefty Hedgehog is snug as a bug in a rug in his hedgehog home on the Shady Bank. We'll pile some bean haulm around it when we take them down, just to keep the frost off it a bit more, as the planting around it isn't as established as I would like yet.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
He provides us with a great deal of entertainment and when we moved here the garden was really overgrown - a lot of undergrowth and overgrown ivy hedging was dug out, so we feel that having caused such a change in Hefty's home circumstances, it's our responsibility to make sure he's cosy until the new planting is established and he can resume looking after himself a bit more.

Verdun, are you pulling our legs? Maybe joking after logcabin jests? If not aren't you worried that the inhabitant will "borrow" some of your tools etc. when they vacate.
Beautiful morning here, however no gardening likely. Have a day of chores today and then off to Nutcutlet country tomorrow - unfortunately for sad reasons - have a funeral to go to there on Monday. Hoping to fit in a walk along Hunstanton beach for old times sake.
Think I'd knock on the door and shout, 'Tea up!' and leave a steaming mug of tea outside, and retreat well back indoors and watch from a distance ....
There are people who are down on their luck and who, for one reason or another, don't want to get into the 'Hostel' system - but it's as well to look out for yourself too - after all, who's going to hand out the cream buns at the Food Bank if Verdun's been bopped over the head and someone has made off with his Rolex!!!???

Same here Dove
Hefty is one lucky hedgepig
He provides us with a great deal of entertainment

p.s. Good Morning
Take care Verd., please……not to blunt your good intentions to help someone in need, but to look after you too.
Morning all. Bit of a bad nights sleep, got up for awhile about 3ish, so then overslept. Very sunny day here in sussex.
I'm going to do a slow cooker meal too today, OH has just walked to village butchers for some lamb.
Verdun, please be careful, that could be anybody hidinin there. Unless Kef is right and you are playing jokes on us
Have a good day all.I
