He's an old sweetie, Sue. Ended up in the dog pound when his elderly owner died. He doesn't hear or see so well, loves a quiet life pottering about and is very fond of his food. Hoping he will have a new home soon, a couple of people are interested
We're all busy bees today. Lovely out the garden, sun shining and lots of plants just waking up - acquilegias, phlox and cowslips. Reluctantly come back in now as my back says stop .
Nice warm house for Ben, light at the end of the tunnel for Dove, hopefully happy ending for Butch, big needle for Sue, Happy Birthday to Inka, cyber hugs for Jess and I can't remember what else I was going to say .
Well I found more shredding to do, typical - had left another bag at the top of the stairs. Anyway, all finished & 3 bags squished under staging in greenhouse- compost bins are behind it. It's trying to sleet out there now so shant be doing seeds today.
Must admit am on a roll re the paperwork, so better not stop whilst feel like that! Going to investigate the stored work-related paperwork boxes in the bottom of my wardrobe now. Cant remember when I last even looked in them! Tomorrow due to be wet up here so will deal with a box in the spare room which does need sorting.
Am now feeling guilty at how cross I was on phone. J.
Hi Forkers--sounds like you all have been busy bees! Thank you for the birthday wishes--don't really have plans, except to crack on with the knitting and hope for some sun. Not actually raining at the mo, so will go out and chop some wood for the fire.
Have 2 hyacinths blooming in a pot on the table--house smells divine. So glad of all the bulbs I potted up in the fall!
Horseradish-very easy to grow, but can be invasive--get a root, plonk in soil, water when you think of it, dig and grate. Wear goggles!
Happy bday Inka, and to everyone else, thank you for letting me vent Nothing like a good venting to free up your mind! Trouble is, nowt to fill it other than garden things, (mindless clap-trap OH says, til it's on the plate!) think it'll be the off-licence later, highly satisfied with things accomplished. Amazing where a day goes right and you get plenty done, how much better you feel, even the kids seem to be in on it!
Looks like I'm joining the raised bed club - bloke just turned up with 3 rectangular frames with galvanised hinges, when clicked together they're about 5'x3' and 8" high. And free!

Cowslips, Caz, how lovely. I don't seem to be very good with them
I have eaten my lunch with my back to the dog
