Glorious weather here today and I was able to work with my shorts on and my shirt off all day.(not a pretty sight!)

Put a few more timber batons on my Pergola and squared it up the best I could. Very pleased with it so far as it frames the path leading to the herb wheel. In the centre is a Sunset apple in full bloom!

Filled my pond from three water butts which already had weed in them so pond looks natural already. Stuck a few rocks and logs around it and made sure the ramp in it was clear in case anything fell in it and couldn't get out.

Planted up a bed of red ham onions and watered them in.

Had a further onslaught on the weeds getting four wheelbarrows full which all went on the compost heap

Showed a prospective plot holder around the last plot availabe and took her details. She said she would have it and would be back with the money. We shall see.

Put more stuff out to harden off and finished the day by watering everything that needed it!
