Back from Hesfes – more about that later, and so much to do that I couldn’t really face any of it and belted off into the garden.
Someone who is more experienced explain this one to me – why is gardening thought to be relaxing? I’ve got holes in my fingers, my back aches, I’ve practically worn a path through the weeds going to and fro to figure out what Small was up to while I was round the corner, and I’ve very little to show for it. A bucketful of weeds and a couple of extra feet of dug over soil, which no doubt next doors cats will decorate for me over night. (I used to like cats as well….)
And was writing this while the grubs were eating, and now I’m being summonsed….”Muummmmy, I’ve finished. and it looks like Small has finished too – he’s thrown his on the floor”.
Sigh.

I dunno – i’m having to WEED my pots this year – VERY unreasonable!
Duh – your comments were there all the time – just didn’t realise they were so far too the right. AND it won’t let me post one without leaving my email addie, so I made one up 🙂 You know it anyway, but don’t want to leave it for all and sundry
this template needs some serious reworking…it looks great in firebird and terrible in everything else!
When I dig weeds out all I end up with are more weeds for my effort. I never seem to get brown earth!!
Grow some catnip and regularly spray it with cat-poison?
