Not done it yet, but going to plant out the only seven beans that germinated (out of twenty) and sow some more.
Also will be planting out some argyranthemums in a clump somewhere and pricking out/potting up yet more sweet peas for successional growing. Blimey - “successional growing” - I sound like I know what I’m doing!
Also going to henna my hair if anyone’s interested!

At the mention of the Rogues Gallery to FEW. I've just refreshed my memory of what you motley lot look like. So interesting. Vinny has your beard grown to viking standards yet?
FEW, you've not bit the bullet, any chance of a mugshot?
Here's the thread if you want to have a look at some of us. There's quite a lot missing though. Anymore takers? No pressure (believe that if you want but you'd be wrong, of course I'm pressurising you)

So far, I've:
* Put Sarriss's mystery beans, runner beans, Lima beans,and dwarf french beans to soak ahead of being baggy sown.
* Sown the climbing french beans I baggy sowed last week.
* Pricked out some salvia.
* Planted out my pot grown broad beans.
* Planted out some multi-sown radishes.
* Planted out some perennial kale.
* First succession sowing of carrots (should be the second, but I didn't have the compost in time).
* Sown salsify and scorzonera.
* Second cucumber sowing (I've somehow acquired two new varieties since the first...)
* Potted on some parsley.
Formerly self-contained, but expanding my gardening horizons beyond pots!

Oh Pros, I tried soaking them before planting and they fell apart. When I direct sowed them, they grew! I'd take them out of that water luv, sorry!
Sounds like you've been busy I'm recovering from a girly day and night sesh in Lincoln yesterday. Feeling a little tired today lol

* Potted on some parsley. Baggy sown? Onto wet kitchen towel in a bag. Essentially chitting rather than sowing. I've had varying success, but it seems to work well for most larger seeds that need to be at room temperature. I don't think I'll ever try it for anything in the propagator again though!
