and spending a day in the garden, under a hot October sun, preparing the beds for some winter sowing has meant a satisfying day all round. Despite the lack of nitrogen in the soil I am going to keep sowing, whilst looking out for a trailer or two of manure. Organic of course!
The chickens were let into the garden today, so they had a great time wandering around, hopefully eating some pests! Ivor helped me to herd them up and make sure they are safe for the night.
Today (post written on the 14th October) marks mum's 77th birthday, and although I haven't managed to speak to her today, I am sure she is having a great day with daughter number 3 in Malta.
I truly hope that I am as fit as her at that age...
