Potted on tomatoes.

Made it to the allotment! Cleared more of the old strawberry bed and put in some new bare roots in a nearby area. Watered(!) and mulched with manure the currants and boysenberry. Admired the buds on my cheap fruit trees from a few years back... The pear and plum are loaded with buds right now but we have a frost forecast for the coming week. Fingers crossed and at least I got to enjoy the hope for a weekend Tongue Plot neighbor/allotment secretary dug up a lovely blackberry bush from a recently vacated plot for me after we'd gone home for the day. I am so sore (December baby-having shenanigans have kept me quite inactive) but very happy to have spent a couple hours in the sunshine with my family.

Yesterday pruned the olive tree. A big job as it is now up to the roof!
Weeded the hot bed.

Planted out the Bunyard's Exhibition broad beans
Repotted the Blue Storm agapanthus which were looking sad in their damaged, cracked pots
Pinched out the Old Fashioned sweet peas
Squished some lily beetles found in flagrante delicto
Speaking of which, I also found a couple of frogs getting acquainted in the pond

I agree with Veggie - chard can withstand most things almost nuclear. I've had two stray plants appear in two different pots and they've been outside all winter.

Tested negative for COVID but my husband and daughter tested positive and the three-month-old is definitely ill. <Sad trombone> I feel an illness coming on as well, so hoping for a speedy recovery and wishing my stranded blackberry plant well out on the allotment

Sowed beetroot, dug over b bean strip and planted b beans. Kept having to avoid a pheasant who was patrolling up and down. Pulled a muscle in my back so I'm a bit ginger about sitting down, standing up, changing position etc. Funnily enough digging was fine but I'll probably suffer later. Made chilli with own toms, cherokee beans and tromba.

Didn't want to like your post DJ but it just happened. I blame the <sad trombone>??. Hope you all feel better soon - the blackberry will be fine without you.
