Once I acquired this stand from a boot sale final yr, painted it and located the primary vegetation for it somebody commented that I would made quite a lot of weblog posts out of 1 plant stand, so I gave it it is personal label!

Here is the freshest picture – in order that makes eight posts giving it a point out….at all times good to have one thing to fill a weblog put up!

Must weed the patio…..once more

It is tied to the trellis in two locations now which ought to cease anymore crashes prefer it had within the winter storm and angled in order that I can see and luxuriate in it from the lounge.

Though we desperately want rain for gardens and extra urgently for farmers fields I’ve loved the hotter climate we have had on the final two days of the week and many gardening was performed……….. extra beetroot seed sown and I acquired the canes prepared
for the French Climbing Beans however when I discovered the ratchet factor and
wires to repair the canes collectively (It was initially a factor for twisting a
wire tie round potato sacks nevertheless it’s sensible for fixing bean canes )
out of the shed, I discovered it had rusted strong since final yr……..that is
Very annoying. I squirted it with WD40 nevertheless it made no distinction. 

The selection was both to purchase a brand new ratchet or wigwam cane helps. The second was the most cost effective choice though now I am left with an enormous pack of wires that Col acquired from a farm sale about 25 + years in the past. 

 I’ve planted out the Chard and the Courgettes……all 4 of them which may be 2 too many, and began to arrange the pots within the greenhouse prepared for the tomatoes, cucumbers, aubergines and peppers. I’ve a house for the spare vegetation as one of many girls at WI has a plant sale at her home on the finish of the month as a fund raiser for 2 charities, so I can pot up my spares and go to her. 

Additionally acquired the greenhouse automated window opener working….lastly. I did it myself with none assist from Brother in Regulation…….very happy with myself!😇

Not much more to say about my week though WI Knit, Sew and Yarn group was good, I would not performed any of the cross sew since final time however acquired a bit extra performed and the espresso and cake was tasty too, and I collected a beautiful pile of library books which I will placed on Monday’s put up.

This week I have been grateful for

  • Good climate for gardening
  • With the ability to stroll to issues within the village
  • A little bit….though too little…… a lot wanted rain
  • Attending to know extra folks via the knit and sew group

 Do you know this weekend it’s National Mills Open Day? A go to to at least one simply into West Suffolk is within the diary ….if all goes to plan.
