Well, the nice weather seems to have hit us early, so I've been making the most of it, catching up with the washing after having the washing machine out of action for over 7 weeks,waiting for parts to come from Beko in Turkey.....listen, really, don't buy Beko! Trying to catch up with the gardening as well, lawns are cut, and me and my daughter Megan had a great day today out there sorting out one of the beds and tidying up, she worked like a beaver!
It took me back to a summer a long time ago, 1976, and my efforts to be a gardner, while taking advice from a vegetarian, I was too easily impressed back then! My poor wife put up with a lot, but drew the line at eating some of the muck I served up, (just don't offer her any home made baked beans....or anything with tofu!) I think the only edible thing I ever cooked for her was fried rice....a long way from the food I cook now.
The best garden I've managed to achieve so far was at Westbury, we had that looking beautiful by the time we moved, but by the time this summer is through I intend to have this one the best yet, with greenhouse and chickens, and we seem to have decided to take root this time, I'm getting too long in the tooth for the endless moving around.
