2022 - What I did today

Monday cleared the palm bed of more finished nigella & blue honeywort and planted out cosmos, dahlias & honesty. Mulched with stuff from the shreddings pile.
Cut back most of the weeds around the pond, just leaving a route for the grass snake to come and go safely. 

Yesterday at a client's (a gîte we took on last year) where we discovered that the flat weedy barbecue area we'd been just strimming actually had stones underneath 10cm of accumulated earth! More interesting it was the foundations of a solid square building with a circular inside, later filled and levelled with slate.  How curious! And a much nicer place to put table and chairs.
