Hi all,
Just a short blog tonight. While Susan was enjoying the delights of her grandchildren I was hard at it with my shoulder to the grindstone and my nose to the wheel, whatever that means.
I was up early for me, before 7, which was good because when Ann rang me i had my eyes open. She had left a box behind so I had to whizz it down to Kettering for Tess and Halsey to take to the market. After coffee I was soaking newspaper and cardboard in water to complete some mulching. The paper was cover with grass clippings. I attached the catcher to the ride on and picked up some old cuttings and made some fresh ones. The slopes here make the ride on an interesting experience. All the more reason to buy a push mower! After the mulching I set about planting out the rhubarb crowns. it took a couple of hours. There are plenty left so I will back fill into the previously planted bed where there are gaps.
Ann returned from the market tired but had one of her best days ever. Susan made up more gift packs during the week and these were all sold.
I cooked sausages for tea while Ann prepared several salads.
I think I will do some mowing and burning again tomorrow since there should be a northerly breeze before the rain starts later in the day. It was a very pleasant 25 here today.
At 430 I am off to the airport to pick up Susan and hopefully the car parts for the next service.
Night folks
Cheers Simon
