    Lesley, Wonky is very useful I agree, but it's taken quite a few years of basic groundwork to get her to this useful stage image

    No one has an answer to my question?  Was it a silly question?  Should I know the answer or is it a bit like asking how long's a piece of string? 

    Oh well,  I will plant out tomorrow and hope for the best image

    Thanks Panda and Verdun 

    I just wanted an idea of what you guys would do, I'll take Verdun's advice and maybe feed and wait another week or two image

    Evening all!  image

    Rain has finally stopped and it's WARM.  image  And we've picked and eaten the first ripe strawberries - only 4, but it's a start, and the birds & squirrels hadn't noticed them.  Normally I'd net them, but OH is going to be picking them in a week or so when I'm away digging brambles in Scotland, and he's not really flexible enough to bend double when harvesting fruit image

    The squirrels may not have discovered the strawberries yet, but the "squirrel-proof" bird feeders are another matter entirely.  I have 6 different feeders for different foods, all intended to be squirrel-proof, but the beasties have managed to raid 5 out of the 6 designs; today I wired on yet another lid.  And when we returned from holiday, the peanut feeder had completely disappeared - no idea where they've hidden it!  image

    Gardening tomorrow if this weather holds.  image

     

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
