Potting on and planting

 Pirate has decided that we need fewer mowers. So these two will be sold. The petrol Suffolk Punch is from about 1965, and the electric Ransome Bowlic the late 40s to 50s. Both cylinder mowers, and the Bowlic was for bowling greens.
Potting on and planting out started...
 It starts to look like a real garden once bean sticks are in!
 Tomato bed in progress...five others have been potted on and may end up outside.
 Sweetcorn..at last!
 These went in on 31 March!!
 And one of this year's experiments..chick peas.
It was a beautiful afternoon's gardening, after posting the past couple of day's sales.
Now onward to transplant drawings and pots to the Etsy shop.

It all looks productive to me. May your mowers sell soon.

Spring rain is going to bring you a bountiful crop I think.

Mmmmm... chick peas, my first thought, followed hard by a distant memory of some I left in the fridge soaked but uncooked... they sprouted, is that the route you have taken?

How many lawnmowers does a pirate need at sea I idly wonder?

If you clean those mowers up and stick them on ebay they should sell to a collector. There are those out there who would pay good money for them!

Always good to see those little seedlings sprout and grow from seed isn't it?

Lettice good comment! I am asking for a simple push mower and One Other!
Avus I am a member of the Old Lawnmower Club...an ad there is the first step
Cat, spring rain is a bit short still..but what we have had plus a few days warmth has done the world of good
