Aches and pains and more aches

But we're getting there. I'd ay 55% done ! 75% has been weeded, but this side is dead dead stoney and think there's more weeds underneath where it's been weeded. I wasn't on weeding duty today !


Finished of the spare stations of both bean trellises with Blue Lake climbing beans. Courgettes are just going crazy.





Put 4 broad beans to the left of the beetroot. This was un- intentional successional sowing ! lol







Ahmed's Bosnian pumpkins x 2. There should be plenty of room here, she says hopefully.






Planted 4 runner beans round the arch, complimented by some calendula, poached egg plants, and dwarf sunflowers. Marked out the front border with plants rather than put a fence up for the time being.



Teepee of Blue Lake Climbing beans with the other front border.
The clear ground to the left is for the leeks. Got turn it over (again), weed (again), de-stone (again), rake, compact, rake, water, rake, make holes ! Not much then ! lol




Not so sunny today, although it was trying to poke through. Infact it was a much nicer day to be working in. Never thought this sun lover would ever wish for a cloud or two !!!

Wow you can't be sleeping to get all this done....and the garden too. It's looking great and so productive. Was in your part of the world over the weekend didn't get near any GC's but managed Ikea at Braehead. Was very hot and humid but lovely weather. Weather had been glorious here today and i popped out to see what's been happening in the garden to see loads of new colour what a welcome home!

Sleep is a bit like a lawn ....... a waste of useful resources !! lol

Ikea is only about 10 mins from me (well about 20 from the lottie which is where I was). Next time you simply must pop in for a cuppa. There's always a spare spade handy too. :-P

Once I've put the plot pics up I shall pop into yours and see what's been going on.
