      I will be getting rid of any tom plants that have given up the struggle. Emptying pots and hanging baskets. Tidying up the greenhouse. Weeding and digging.
      Then I have to help OH with taking out the bath to put in a new shower.
      Go to the tile market for tiles.
      Thats just tomorrow, don't want to think about Sunday as it will probably be more of the same as we are doing over the whole bathroom and the bedroom.

      And when your back stops aching,
      And your hands begin to harden.
      You will find yourself a partner,
      In the glory of the garden.

          As for my weekend, if the weather is good on Saturday will be planting Garlic & onion sets plus digging up the last of my potatoes. Sunday will be Winchester Farmers Market in the morning and no doubt cooking while quaffing some decent red wine when we get back.

                Well it's good to have a plan - even better to be flexible about it!

                  Hoping to remove the last of the bean frames - all but one - still got a few green ones hanging in there!

                  Sunday morning - tidying village flower beds with my Britain in Bloom pals. Afternoon - it's my turn to cook dinner - had it at my sisters last weekend.
                  Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

                    I'll be shopping if it's raining, or out putting my garlic in if it's dry.

                    Bet it's the shopping though, it is the weekend, hubby did say he would take me into lincoln this weekend. The credit card is going to get a bashing.
