Only had sunday available.
Got down about 9
Dug in new pond
cleared out last years three sisters bed
pulled up the last of the carrots and weeded the last bit of the "harlow carr" 3x3
rotovated last years been bed
piled up all the junk from last year, stuffed it in a bin and then gave it to my father to drop off in a skip down the scout hall (we hired it for a clear out, it's being picked up today...)
tidied up the pot rack
cleared out the nature area and put the old logs and twigs by the new pond
built a cold frame from scaffolding boards.
and...
started planting!
I now have a tray of marigolds (or will do), autumn giants, french beans (in pots), cucumber variety 'burpless' (needs planting now??? definately felt wrong doing that!), elephant garlic in the 3x3 bed, along with (but not in the same place) broad beans bought about three years ago...
Also put some ornamental bulbs round the pond
Huzzah.
Got to 4:30, hadn't had a drink or any food, so went home to regroup. |
