Sluggy areas have been deluged with nematode spray ... that'll teach'em
By the time I'd done all that and a bit of general tidying I decided that I needed to do some knitting on the sofa ... think I'm missing Wimbledon Roll on Olympics
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Topbird, YES the "garden gets terrifying at this time of year" so much so that I sat in the sun and thought about all the work that had to be done Well it was the first warm, sunny day since. . . .?.
It was so nice to get some sun today! I only managed a brief potter around the garden at lunch time, but it felt so good!
RB, enjoy your visit to the gardens. I've only ever gone during the Spring, really need to get down there in the Summer. I also keep meaning to try Winterborne next door.
Currently having rest enforced on me by a cat that has fallen asleep on my lap.

Evening all. Taken me ages to read back and now I've forgotten most of it
Hosta - I can really sympathise. Why do people think it's ok to take no responsibility whatsoever for the animals they decide to have?
A well aimed hosepipe might do a better job....
But it's not your job to deal with it. If they can't be there, they need to employ someone to do it....or don't have a r***y dog in the first place.
Been outside enjoying a bit of welcome warmth..removing a fence for relocation....
Daughter made spag bol for dinner Lovely jubbly
I'm contemplating going out to do a bit more now that I've had it.

I've just posted some photos of my trip to York Gate yesterday, on a new thread.
Now it's bed time...
