Another 1.5 hours at the plot today. Called at newsagent to post some ebay sales off and there were some boxes of flattened cardboard boxes outside. I asked if I could have one and wish I had asked for the four box fulls as the cardboard within is an ideal size for what I need at the plot.
Dropped off some chitted potatoes and put them in greenhouse with the others, then wrapped them all up snugly in bubblewrap.
Carried on with the onerous task of digging, weeding and de-stoning the plot edge border.Elder creeping buttercup and stones seem to be the order of the day in this bed. Only got about 2 metres sorted before I realised even though the sun was shining there was a pretty bladdy cold wind encircling my kidneys!
Put some glass over one of the wooden sided beds to warm the soil but added a lump of heavy timber to keep it down in case the wind got under it.
