Last week was glorious which is typical.<br />My Mother always quoted " Never cast a cloud til May's out" and I hadn't a clue what she meant, except that I shouldn't leave my vest off!

I'm now passing on his posts to my hubby for him to read. He doesn't do blogs, but has started to read Mark's posts. <br />I can't believe it...you have a neglected greenhouse! <br />Heheh...maybe I should adopt it? I know just how much time can be consumed in the garden, so can understand that sometimes life is just too busy, or it's difficult if you aren't fitting fit. Hopefully your back will improve soon. <br />I have to constantly balance my garden with my artwork and sometimes it's a real battle. <br />I think hubby might be too frightened to take a peek Di. <br />He was listening to Terry Walton from the Rhondda Valley allotment on Radio 2, and Terry said they might not appear until mid April.<br />I think he'll wait until then before having a peek.<br />We need more sunshine on them to warm the soil...but this week's temperatures have dipped and it's quite chilly. <br />I'm not sure that they are snoozing...more like they're comatose!<br />He'll do a happy dance if they do appear. <br />It doesn't help that all my little seedlings have sprouted and are waiting to go out into the raised beds. Cloches have just been delivered!<br />Hugs back to you...have a great week and thanks for telling me about Mark :DNeesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254134409987044782.post-19329139069270597122017-04-11T17:14:14.731+01:002017-04-11T17:14:14.731+01:00Hehe...thanks Jan, I just hope it is rewarding eno...Hehe...thanks Jan, I just hope it is rewarding enough for all the effort and hard work.

Wow, that looks such a precise project ...Hi Neesie! Wow, that looks such a precise project - a fabulous veggie plot indeed! One of my friends/fellow bloggers down here in Hampshire is married to a chap who has his own gardening blog. He's very much into raised beds and is a real fountain of knowledge - his blog is a great read and very useful. I've been a veggie grower in the past - and (sadly) have a neglected but perfect greenhouse that you would love. If my back problems would clear up I could get it going again but it has to wait for now. You really should invest in one! Anyhow, this is the link to Mark's blog for your hubby: http://marksvegplot.blogspot.co.uk/<br /><br />If your potatoes haven't sprouted at all it might be worth hubby gently checking just one to see if there's any signs of life, at the end of a row. The soil needs to be warm enough for growth to begin, if planted too soon you might get nothing - or they might just be having a little snooze before they leap into action! I suspect that the very beginning of March was quite early - especially for Scotland. Bless you for being like a big kid :)<br /><br />Hugs<br /><br />Di xxDihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06153667791623954306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254134409987044782.post-62202268912264902582017-04-10T23:31:26.355+01:002017-04-10T23:31:26.355+01:00Goodness you have been busy and it is hard work .....Goodness you have been busy and it is hard work ... but so rewarding.<br />Well done and thanks for sharing all of your lovely photo's.<br /><br />All the best JanLowcarb team memberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961199165290289611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254134409987044782.post-20631532194023672232017-04-10T21:58:24.879+01:002017-04-10T21:58:24.879+01:00Ambitious but you will be so self sufficient ~ lov...Ambitious but you will be so self sufficient ~ lovely photos ~ thanks,<br /><br />Wishing you a Happy Week ~ ^_^carol l mckennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151914466378663660noreply@blogger.com
