    Sow more tomatoes, clear up the cat poo from my raised beds (a never ending task)
    Mark out space to plant my potted cherry tree into ground as it’s never been happy.
    sort out seeds.

    Hope there is cake and biscuits
    I get carried away too but finding I'm later this yr and things haven't germinated great.

    Plan for Sunday is to prepare the potato bed and plant out a few early cos salad seedlings under cover.
    Mid morning coffee on the plot with allotment neighbours.
    And maybe a bit more indoors sowing (marrows, courgettes, pumpkins, or is that too early? I often get carried away)

    Thursday jobs
    Prepare beds for cauliflowers due to arrive tomorrow - done
    Weeding - done some
    Trim more grass edges - no
    Mow lawns if dry (very unlikely) - managed the back lawn before it started to rain
    Check peas and plant out if big enough - done
    Harvest salad leaves - done

    The fruit cage frame that I ordered at the weekend arrived (the old one got broken in the wind last year). This one is bigger and is intended to stay up all year, possibly with bird netting round the sides to keep the cat off that part of the garden.

    Attempt to regenerate some enthusiasm to go outside (too cold, dark and wet) - not really
    Weeding - no
    Harvest salad leaves, carrots, possibly spinach - done except spinach

    I did remove a large pile of cat poo, which didn't do much for my enthusiasm!

    Highly unlikely to have any opportunity to garden today as it is forecast to rain and I have a busy day anyway.
