much recently, it being January, dark, and wet. Also, with being crocked (three weeks with broken ribs now, and they still hurt like mad, even when just walking), I have been unable to do any digging. But, I have mended the roof (the new felt blew off in the nasty easterly we had a few days ago), this time with proper roofing tacks, not a feeble staple gun.
One third is dug cleared and sewn, while the other two sections are dug but not cleared. I have cut the raspberries back and continue to top up the compost heap. Thanks to Merman's Bokashi bins, food waste is gradually building up.
There are definite signs of life. I think these might be peas.
And the daffs are starting.
Mermaid's herbs are planted and if not yet thriving, at least they are still there.
I am so looking forward to pottering weather with beer in the shed and neighbours to chat to.

What was that programme where wossname and his mate used to drink sherry in the shed?
Anyway, Dr. H's top over-the-counter painkilling tip (apart from beer) is co-codomol. 99pees from Tesco.
Hehe hope you enjoy the pottering in your great field of mud!
I know the programme you mean henry. The one where they start with a house full of grown up kids and they each leave home. Only for something to happen and by the end of the show they are all back at the home.
I do enjoy my veg plot, but I dont have the advantage of having 'neighbours'
Don't worry too much about the herbs H as they are (But don't tell Mermaid) basically, weeds and would survive a nuclear winter. They are the only things we ever grew that the more you abuse and mistreat them the more they thrived!
PS Bags on the way first thing manana.

It is pottering weather, get out there LH. And yes has been said, you need a supply of something strong in that shed to keep you going.
I'm also tagging you, as it would be interesting to know if you were as miserable as I was when you were 13!!!!
Should all start to spring to life soon - you gotta have a good beer stash in the shed indeed and maybe a dirty mag too :]
...and no, I don't mean a soiled copy of gardeners weekly!
Gardening, like retrospective letters to myself, are soooo not my thing!!! LOL
