  • What have you done today?

    Hi,

    I know there have been similar threads to this but thought it would be nice to have another one.

    A place for us to say what we've achieved and it doesn't have to be garden related...

    I've so far been working on the admin side of things for my stage school, lots of new students which is great!
    I'm about to make myself a cup of tea and sit and watch the rain-I don't like it but I'm sure my new primula will

    I woke up with grand plans of planting seedlings on the lottie... grand plans they still remain!
    Went out to pay some bills, take the recycling, came home, made a bacon sarnie, watched jimmy doherty in darwins garden and now perusing the vine... Now feeling very lazy having said that out loud... must go make an effort

            big shed Jacob....

            did a very small amount of hoeing, sowed some of my RHS seeds, ironed my shirts (though none needed until next week) and am about to watch Lewis

              Well ok, but you asked for it. Today I have lysed my bacterial cell pellet (mushed em up into a lovely smelling suspension), clarified them (spun out the non-soluble carp) and purified my recombinant protein from the resulting cleared cell lysate. As if that wasn't pure excitement on a stick, I'm concentrating the purified protein and will purify it further on Gel Filtration, which separates proteins according to their size. If I can bear the further excitement, I will order some more consumables for the lab (sadly, we are not allowed to order wine, choccie or cakes on the budget code, boo hiss!).

              In the meantime I have eaten a rather nice lunch - a ciabatta filled with mozarella, chorizo and cherry tomatoes, toasted inside one of those toastie pockets. Yum!

              I may follow that up with an orange. Cos I'm feeling zesty.

                Well I planted some lettuce in a tub. My beds aren't ready yet but my boys are terribly enthusiastic and simply can't wait a minute longer to grow things. May start some sweetcorn off in seed trays later. But thats about it. Still waiting for my seeds to arrive in the post. Grrrrr

                Sheesh - I've had right lazy day compared with yous lot. Might go and do a spot of knitting now.

                    It's a beautiful sunny day here in Fife (in between the rain and hail that is), but as one of our horses (the biggest one of course!), stood on my foot yesterday, i cant even get a shoe on to go outside and do some gardening type things. So consoled myself with reading LOADS of threads and posts on here & learned masses - many thanks guys.
                    Then got busy with potting up the dwarf french beans (from an earlier post) in a pot in the conservatory; germinating some parsnips in the hot water cupboard (from a post on here): and sowing some leeks into halved milk containers (from a post on here!)........maybe being laid up isnt so bad after all!!

                    Many thanks to everyone for sharing their tips and advice - i'm loving it.

                      Gorgeous sunny, blowy day but no time outside unfortunately! Huge supermarket shop arrived to be put away; unpacking from weekend away (actually still waiting to be done); started a sloooow-cooked ragu, which will simmer away for 5 hours. Little jobs mount up and basically the only bit of 'garden time' I've had is to pick herbs for ragu and check on salad leaves that are growing. Nice day though!

                            It being Monday I went to work at 6.45am and got home at 6.00pm - And so shall it continue till Friday when we're off to Hastings till next Monday. There's not much to do in the garden, I'm quite up to date.
