Gardening

That was the today's task.


Collecting shallots pulling off dried paper-like outers and readying them to dry out in the greenhouse.
Weeding the bed they had grown in; cutting back ferns over-growing the tadpole 'ponds', discovering that there are still some tadpoles that have yet to become frogs.


Took courgette plants from the greenhouse, dug holes for them, took off the male parts, planted, pegged with sticks and fed with pelleted chicken manure and some fish, blood and bone.


And, we've just had sufficient rain to bed in the plants quite nicely.
