Have just come inside. Being able to have a nice day outside in the sunshine was wonderful.
Didn't actually get around to doing any weeding. I hate weeding. It's so tedious and it's like painting the Forth Bridge. But more sunshine tomorrow, so I might do a bit then.
Weeding's worse if you leave it Gary because they get bigger and more likely to seed as well as spread by other means. Trouble is, I don't practise what I preach
Had almost a couple of hours outside plodding on with the area for the chicken-ranch-resiting. Cut down a largish Pyracantha, now have to dig up the roots
Lovely day here. Had strimmer out going round edge of raised beds. OH said to be careful. Too early for that. Might get caught by the power tool police!!
Looks better. Had a general clean and weed round. Hand still cold and tingling. Sure I will pay for it later!
Oh dear, Sue. I think we've all seized the moment today Weather been lovely here as well . Just had a rollocking off OH as my cold's come back with a vengence . He said I should have left it to him. No chance - he's just my labourer.
Flo - I have to dig out a large hydrangea that's past it's sell by. Not looking forward to that either.
I think my most time consuming job in the garden is weeding. My horse manure is full of weed seeds that the horses have eaten which have survived the rotting down process! Also I am surrounded by woodland (brambles, ivy etc in it) and fields which are wild life friendly and full of wild flower seeds which are weeds in the garden. I think the dear little birdies sit in the shrubs and drop bramble seeds out of you know which end! But I'm really very lucky to live in such a beautiful place, so now feel guilty for having a moan.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
February deck decor. Feels good to be mucking about outside! A little grey here--woke up to find my poor old dog had had an accident overnight, so spent some time shampooing--or should I say depooing carpet--my own fault-he woke me but I went back to sleep. Happy gardening, Forkers! Love the costumes!
Evening all you busy forkers - its been a cold but sunny day here in Welsh Wales and was able to carry on with all the garden chores but needed a jumper over my white blouse and braces . Neighbour who's moving gave us 6 large tubs full of bluebells and primroses so I've been separating them and putting them in any bare patches of ground and I get to keep the tubs too . Just had some salmon sandwiches for tea and will soon be going for a bath to help with the old backache that most of us seem to get after this sudden burst of activity outside! Hope all poorly folk quickly get better.
