Managed to do a bit of raking in Veg Plot 1 (the old pond) and turned some of the heaps of composting grass and weeds elsewhere.
Went to the local garden centre in the afternoon - to buy a Diary. Had a meander round the garden centre which should be renamed as Christmas Tat Centre. Not a single packet of seeds in site - a few half price bulbs and lots of cyclamen, poinsettias and trees. They did have some amaryllis bulbs which were coated in wax. Apparently they need no potting up or aftercare . Just stick them on the shelf and watch them grow. Didn't seem natural to me so I left them.
I didn't come away empty handed though - I retrieved a small square, blue flowerpot from the pile of pots and trays for recycling.
Tonight's the night I write up my 2026 Diary - the one that tells me what to do each day.
