Not much today due to the weather.

Went to a friends and picked up a shed load of cardboard from his new kitchen fit.

Spent all afternoon removing tape, staples, and shiny bits

Sowed peas. Found a small pot of something oniony, could be onion or leek seedlings. All very small and neglected. Separated them and prodded them into the soil to see what happens. Raked and bagged leaves, again. Retrieved spent compost from some tubs and bagged it up for later use.

Spent some time cracking open radish pods for the seeds. Not sure why really, as I have millions of radish seed packets and I'm not sure I even like radishes!!
However, every seed deserves a chance. !!!

Got out the ride on, set the blades to the lowest and drove it round the front yard collecting the pine needles, my grandson called in so I left him finish it the emptied them in around the raspberry canes.

Clear up all the cat crap from the raised flower beds and hopefully made it cat proof with a net and water bottles and citrus trimmings.

Changed the regulator on my gas cooker so I could change from butane to propane, a few years ago we had a very harsh winter with temperatures below -7’C and the butane froze and lost pressure, I suspect we will have another harsh one this year so change to Propane which doesn’t freeze as easy.

Got turf in and filled the bunker, it will be cold tonight, currently it is 3’C and forecast to go lower. Closed up the poly tunnel for the night.
Coffee keeps me busy until it’s acceptable to drink whiskey.

Collected 2 more bags of leaves

Bagged up last of the manure

Started digging the bean trench. I was really please how the soil looked and the amount of worms. All I did last time was line with shredded paper.

Finished dismantling the strawberry netting frame

Dug through some of the 'herbaceous' border being ruthless and chucking out unwanted overgrown or self seeded stuff. Now I will have gaps to fill with I have no idea what. I'm fed up with the plants I've got and not a clue what I would like in their place. The digging continues tomorrow.
