Amazing how quickly it gets too hot for digging holes ?☀️? Instead the hammock is getting its first airing of the year. Don't think I've ever been able to lie in it whilst my tulips are still in flower??.....its been a strange old weather year
The knee is icky!!!! Still sore and all bandaged up....so not really able to bend down . Went to town and got some huge plasters with a big pad in the middle so that the yucky stuff is completely covered. Didn't hinder the gardening too much, but thanks to all of you that asked, I think I may pull through! Tomatoes now in the greenhouse, and greenhouse plants all outside. It has been a lovely day here, so now ready for a sit down with something cold and alcofrolic.
I got about two thirds of the sweet peas in. Now it's chucking it down with rain. Sue Pollard and Winston. Churchill will have to wait until tomorrow now.
I had 900g of live mealworms arrive today. The blackbird loves them. I've put them in the garage fridge. Do I feed them?

Ours usually come with some bran in with them or a little bag of bran to sprinkle on them - but they're usually comatose in our garage fridge.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
While I was plating sweet peas, I tipped them out of the roottrainers and found a vine weevil grub. Considering they were on a shelf in the greenhouse, I wasn't expecting that.
LOL Fidget - I will be plating peas tonight - along with new pots, chicken and local asparagus - yum. Quite fancy Hosta's laksa though..... I could make it to Devon in 5 hrs with a tail wind...
You're right though Fidget - we definitely need the Edit button back - though it might be fun if people post some rude things unintentionally in the meantime (I'm about 6 and still titter at the word 'knickers')
Hot and heavy work done today. Time for a cuppa, then shower.
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down

Mine just came with some damp newspaper.

A tasty morsel for the robin though.
That's planting sweet peas, not plating. We need the edit button back.

Thunder , Lightning and torrential rain now. I've still got to water the sweet peas in.
Even the ducks have gone for shelter under the pergola.
