Been to the allotment and planted the currants. It's horribly sticky down there again, after being not too bad at the beginning of the week - stuck to my fork, stuck to my spade and stuck to my boots. I was nearly in tears.....
Then it started raining.
But at least I managed to dig up a baby thorn tree that I've had marked down since I moved in! And a big clump of ornamental grass - I think it's Stipa tenuissima, or similar - which I shall give to the chap who gave me the manure. Much as I like grasses, the allotment is not the place for it. Although I do plan a bit of a flower patch as I have no garden at home.

Our front of the houses are slanted anyway Bjay. They really are a funny shape.But yes, it is long frontwards.
I'll be taking those slabs up, and removing all those big rocks from under the window.

What is going on in this world?
Sorry about your bed Bjay, yet another unwanted expense I suppose.
Geoff, can you get Shredded Wheat in Spain? You can't in France. Nor Shreddies, or Grape Nuts.
14° now, quite nice, sun and cloud. They cancelled our snow forecast for Monday, but they say colder on Wednesday 7°.
I'll be happy with colder, as long as it's dry.
I think I'm growing gills.......
