I have over the last week been planting out my little seedlings for the first time. The weather has been good, plenty of sun and a bit of rain. Who could ask for more?
My rocket is beginning to grow in my pots and so far, so good, the slugs have kept their distance. My basil is beginning to come alive and parsley is spreading.
My biggest pride and joy, the tomatoes and now out and potted and I have managed to find room for a few more blueberry bushes to help pollinate my existing one and I have purchased a lucky dip fruit bush which came in as a plum tree, yummy. It makes the garden sound huge but container gardening is all we really have room for. Builders nowadays do not leave room for the old vegetable patch now do they?
However, I have one big job that I really need to crack on with this week and that is putting up my cheap Argos greenhouse. It sounded great when I pushed the button for order. Money all done over the Internet so no stress there until I get my bill but now I have to actually figure out how to get the thing up and face the mutterings of the other half, 'hat do we want one of those for!' Well the weather is so bright and sunny that I should be out there now, shouldn't I? Alack, it is so much easier just to sit and right about it.
