Thank you all - I had a great day. OH went out for a run in the morning, so with the very able assistance of my 3yo daughter Niamh, I cored my stump carrot box to a depth of 16" and filled the resulting holes with the compost mix. I completed filling my parsnip barrel with sand and gave it a good soaking to get the sand to settle.
In the afternoon I went out to my polytunnel and rotavated the growing area to incorporate the extremely generous application of horse sh*t into the soil and gave it all a damn good soaking. Planted out the remaining 200 or so onion sets in the two onion beds in the tunnel, then planned what is going where, and having made that decision, I put in my tomato canes, erected my runner bean frame and then finally erected my cucumber framwork.
Came home to a lovely home cooked Indian meal and a birthday cake decorated entirely by my 9yo daughter Iona - piccies to follow - it was really impressive!
Ratty,
So what did you do AFTER Breakfast then Mate, eh? eh?!
Trousers and I are embarassingly late, but our birthday wishes are JUST as huge and meaningful.
Unfortunately the cat couldn't give a toss, but sends you much cake and candles?.X
Much Love,
Wellie.X
