All Set!

I walked into town this morning. I should have photographed the journey à la Lottie, but forgot my camera, and by the time I'd remembered it was too late to come back.


So, I'm afraid you have to be happy with pictures of my booty! - Now I had a minor dilemma because I am doing really well on my Lent promise of not wasting money on things I don't need (and was consequently able to donate to comic relief last night, whilst crying onto my dinner!) But I do really want to sort out my vegetable plot, and a veggie plot without vegetables is pretty useless...... so when I spotted that Woolworths are doing buy one get one free on seeds, and half price on other garden bits, I couldn't resist.

So here we have 2 asparagus crowns, and seeds for runner beans, swede, leeks, butternut squash, courgette and carrot, and 8 Dahlia bulbs which I will plant in a patio pot.

Whilst out in the greenhouse I also snapped my seed progress:-

Left at the top are the rockets seeds which are showing nicely, on the right up there with the little grassy looking leaves, is spinach, which has only just begun to show in the last day or so, and the bottom is mixed lettuce. Not very exciting yet as they're only seed leaves, but I'm chuffed as the seeds were old, but it's great to see them doing their thing! - Just hope that the snow that they are forecasting tomorrow, which I must say judging by today's glorious sunshine does feel a tad unlikely, doesn't do them any damage!
