This 'weekend' I bought my potato seeds, shallot sets, fleece and some umberella style opening cloche/covering that were reduced - they are marvellous, I bought a few in different sizes.

Today I cleared out the garage which was imensley satisfying. Checked my shrub cuttings were ok, had to treat them for aphid though. OH then put me a nice length of worktop in the garage and I have a great work space.
In the summer I fell through the garage roof (when I had got over the shock it was a hilarious sequence of events!) and all Wickes had suitable was clear corregated plastic sheets. OH had to do the whole roof as long term / temp job. Hey presto - almost one giant green house! It has been great for my shrub cutting over winter. When the sheets are no longer needed as roofing, they will be converted into a cold frame or a cover of some sort.

All in all a good weekend which I am about to reward with a long bath and a baileys!
