Being the amount of work I’ ve put in at the allotment thus far. This weekend was supposed to include much allotmenting but it kept getting put off. I got an hour in on Saturday, during which I turned over a few more rows and, back at home, planted a row of fennel and two rows of corriander (organic in the row nearer the greenhouse). Meanwhile, the seedlings are coming on. Got a lot of tomato, quite a lot of pepper, including Mavras, 5 or 6 cucumbers, loads of parsley, some chilli…
Sunday, the plan was to go early to Ikea, to sort out bits for the “new” kitchen then back by two to spend the rest of the day gardening. Well, that plan was half realised: we did get to Ikea early. But we got home at six.
Friday I had a day off. Natalie came up with Louis and Arlo. After lunch, we went over to Dave and Laylah’s. I foolishly wondered aloud about the possibility of building a studio (like Laylah and Dave’s) myself. (How hard could it be?!) We left Lola there as she was staying for a sleepover with Isla.
Sat, we went on the bikes to pick up Lola. After lunch, we went by bike to the little playground where I drew a T-junction on the basketball court so Lola could practice cycling. She’s only learned, in the last couple of weeks, the confidence to start off without help. So she’s now an independent cyclist.
Basta.
