7-Tidy the front garden area, plant the 2 new hydrangeas, lay weed matting, then top with bark chippings - 50% DONE

Well, I didn't see this last week, so probably should put Read ALL G&G Threads at the top of the list 

Garden - 
Prune apples & pears
Clear old raspberry canes
Weed and mulch the Arch Bed
Finish weeding and mulching around the blackcurrants & stawberries in the potager
Tidy the storage in the shed so I can find the net for the garlic and use it
Dead head the artichokes as the birds have not been near them for a few weeks
Clean the bird feeders

Life - 
Clean the windows
Scrub and oil the island unit
Tidy/clean the bootrack
Waterproof the seat of my ski pants - fed up with getting a wet & cold seat when I sit on a snowy chairlift
Load the banking app onto my phone, got a phone 12 months ago with fingerprint recognition so I could do that and haven't got around to it yet
Wash the laundry basket - it's cloth and just needs putting through the machine
Dust the spare room - no visitors since before Covid so it really needs it

So far, nobody has earned a Gold Star, and anyone who comes along now and says they've done everything on the list will be viewed with suspicion.

Time to post next week's List!

Today I managed to complete some of last week's outdoor jobs, but seeing as I'm not allowed to bring them forward and mark them done for the coming week, I'll have to think up new ones.
Done today
Sowed b. beans and peas but I'm not at all confident they'll perform in this cold, so those jobs, although done are slightly useless. Cleared old tomato tubs. Continued digging over gh2 border picking out teabag casings. Barricaded hole in manure bin against rats. I didn't think they'd be interested in a purely manure bin, maybe it was warm.
