Definitely need a few more . How have you sorted them? By type, date of sowing, age, alphabetical...........  Veg is sorted into tomatoes, chillies & sweet peppers, peas & beans, herbs, salad, tunnel veg, outside veg, micro greens.
flowers are sorted into annual, perennial, cutting only, wildflowers & pollinators, sow to sell.
A few of these have subsection within them and sorted into varieties.

Wow, SC, you have a much better classification than I do. I split mine into vegetables in one box, and flowers in the other.
Within each box I group them by type, i.e. beetroot, carrots, cabbage etc, unless I don't have very many, then I have a 'lucky pot' that the leftovers get thrown into.

1. The first daffodils of 2025 are flowering 
2. Watching a whirlygig of washing spinning around in the sunshine and gentle breeze. Usually it hangs limply and doesn't dry.
3. Finding the House Gnome again  He was here when we moved in, 40+ years ago . I haven't seen him for a few years but he appeared while I was chopping back brambles in the ditch today. He's very muddy but still has traces of the original red and blue paint. I'll clean him up and find him a suitable home - but not today!

I think I found some readymade curtains for the spare room. If they suit it will save me having to revamp the 40 yr old ones, which is probably for the best as I think they're only suitable for the bin.

Yellow sticker bargains in Morries this afternoon............and a Tip for all you YS bargain hunters. 
On Sunday (and probably on weekdays), about an hour before closing, food from the hot food counter (pies, cooked chicken etc) is half price, with a Morrisons card. Today there were whole cooked chickens, marked down to half price, BUT they were on the trolley thing with the pies that weren't marked down - just a sign saying half-price at checkout.
It was unclear whether the other bags of cooked meat (chicken wings etc) would be halfprice at the checkout too so I asked one of the assistants. To my amazement she said they're reduced by 90% now as its nearly closing time. (It was about 3-30). She fetched a yellow sticker machine and printed off new price labels and barcodes for me. The whole roast chicken was 68p, a couple of chicken legs 38p, bag of chicken wings 75p and 2 chunky steak pies were 33p. Its almost a shame I don't eat meat!! I know some very happy dogs though.

Being complimented on my garden. By someone I’ve only met a couple of times in passing.
