2023 - What I did today

I desperately wanted to do more gardening today (and ideal overcast but mild weather again) as it was my last day of annual leave, but I instead spent all day doing work stuff. Seven days in a row off work (four days of annual leave, the bank holiday and the weekend) and I spent four of them doing work stuff and one in a heap with a stinking cold. If only I was paid for all the work stuff I do in my own time!

Anyway, I managed to dash around the garden wielding two big watering cans this evening. I didn't have time to refill them, so I just gave all my recent planting-outs and sowings a little trickle of water. I'll not be able to check on anything again until Saturday so I hope things survive.

I found another half-bird in the garden while I was watering. This time I haven't immediately buried it - let it be a warning to any birds thinking about hoiking up more sweetcorn!
