  • so yesterdays planned jobs:
    Cutting back buddlia and cooking apple tree done
    putting together another bed done
    housework done
    nap nope!

    next two days I’ll be sleeping so won’t get anything done
    over weekend I need to do a tip run maybe fill one of the made beds I’d like to make a new cage that fits my beds the tunnel I have just isn’t big enough and I have an old pallet and some fine mesh already and finally if the fittings arrive get the final bed put together.

            • Friday jobs

              Stuck at home until various people get in contact, which probably means all day. The allotment is flooded anyway so not much I can do there until the water goes down.

              Put away wheelbarrow and water trays (IBC and bins are full)
              Empty and put away drip trays at home
              Weeding
              Pick up fallen brassica leaves
              Plan weekend gardening

                            • Busy week, but today I managed to get to the allotment and made a start on cutting back the buddleia, which is not in the flooded part of the allotment. Also cleared some leaves, harvested a carrot and the men came and replaced the garden fence.

                              No gardening time tomorrow.
