Getting housework sorted...little by little...not pushing myself after the second jag (Scots for vaccination) yesterday. Keeping up with the laundry.
Pirate has been cracking on with improving the raised bed where the legumes will hopefully grow, and we both have been tidying the garden steadily.
Today's weather has turned cold again, after two days of shorts weather. Back to jeans and fleece jackets!! Then a decent shower of rain at suppertime...relief that I won't have to water the small pots outside tomorrow.
Nighttime frosts are forecast again so all the small plants in the greenhouse now have bubble wrap over them! It's about time to sow squash and pumpkin seeds, but I think I will hold back on that for a week or so.
The sepia printed cards have, I think, dried, so they are ready for the writing on the back.
The larger prints are drying slowly....frustratingly slow....but no point packing one in its tube to have it arrive stuck to its lining paper.
So a couple of just clearing jobs away... hopefully to get creative soon. The forecast tomorrow is for cold , wind and rain...so it just might be tomorrow!!

And we are barely easing into a week of warmer weather.
Hello Gwynneth,
We are all fleeced up down here rather close to the South Pole by the feel of the breeze today. 3 degrees overnight, so not quite a frost, but very close.
Well done with getting the gardens prepared and ready for spring planting, I hope you have luck with the squash and pumpkins.
Lovely to hear from you recently on my site, we do think of you and the Pirate often.
P & L xx
Congrats on the jag!
Great to hear about your second jab!
It's a strange, cold, dry April we are having this year, at least down in Cambridgeshire. I am almost at the bottom of my water butt, just watering a few herbs and plants in pots! bring on a little rain next week if we are lucky.
