    I love sitting back with a glass of red, in the sunshine after working hard all day long ! I love pruning and titivating and even though I'm supposedly sitting back and enjoying, I always spot a new task to be done but sad to say that I find composting such a chore haha, I just keep adding and leaving it to do its thing - that's why I only get compost every two years or so! (Because I only have that Darleky thing, if had room for two or three open crates it would be easier and more satisfying ! ) And I must say congrats to primrose cottage for spelling discretely correctly, I once got told off at work by my boss for spelling it incorrectly (he said it was discreetly) (20 years older than him) but that's a whole new thread image
