WELL! THE MEN ARE DOING THE WORK BUT VERRRY SLOOWWLY.

If she had their equipment, she'd been finished by now! Silly men, she won't ever recommend them to anyone who wants garden work done, that's for sure.

She left for the allotments quite late but the traffic was light and the weather agreeable, she ate yellow cherries and did some work, there's a lot of work to do in moving the raised beds about, changing the second and third plots beds shape and then making small beds around the base of the four fruit trees, into which she'll put Spring flowering bulbs.

You cannot go digging around fruit trees and doing this means that the area will be kept grass free and weeded but not dug over. It really will take her all summer to get it how she wants the four plots for next year but there's no rush and she works at this for herself, if you've always worked on projects for other people, it is very agreeable to have something that only YOU plan and plot and do.

I stayed home, as she had stuff to bring home, baskets of roses and willow, she has allowed a willow to grow because it gives her sticks with which to repair old WW. His top edge needs repairing and she will do that tonight before the sticks dry out, this way they're supple and she can bend them into shape.

The other basket was full of herbs and stuff, she loves a big salad made of lovage, melissa, oregano, marjoram, chives, mint, wild garlic leaves with olive oil and raspberry vinegar and tops it off with a piece of meat on top.. slurp..

So now we're off to mend old Wicker Wheelie.. PipPip. Short and sweet is this post!

GeeGee Parrot.
