Default Friday Feeling

I am sitting here at work thinking WEYHEY it is Friday.

Tomorrow I am out in my garden and I am also doing a major seed in trays sowing session. I am feeling all twitchy on what I am going to sow and my what to put where plans.

My friends all think I have lost it and am turning into a sad old bat.

Have you guys got the friday feeling????????

Definitely. I just wish the hands of the clock would move a bit quicker.

Mind you I've got a work meeting tomorrow here in the office at 11.00 for an hour or two so that takes the edge off my Friday feeling.

Definately got the Friday feeling and actually get it every Friday. Like Winolover, I am usually sitting at work trying to look busy! Today I am lucky - no one else in the office ALL day, so that is how I found this seed swapping website. Already posted some seeds off and am expecting some. Love it! I really hope tomorrow is nice weather because when it's not, have to go BORING shopping.

I've done my gardening for this weekend: put 500 or so onion sets into cell trays all over the windowsills. I'm avoiding the new allotment since I grassed up my neighbour for flytipping on it. i should be okay to return by about, oh, August. She might have forgotten it by then

Is it alright to sow tomato seeds in a cold greenhouse now? Should I do it in a propagator instead?

what does your packet say? some varieties are planted at different times. Check out the temperature that your seeds need for germination (16 C ?), and compare with your greenhouse's temp. Then, chocks away

I've had the Friday feeling since 8. 30 this morning, as in THANK G** IT'S FRIDAY (COS I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS WEEK). The day didn't improve, and I nicked off at around 4 pm (POETS). Doesn't happen very often, but I just couldn't take any more. Hoping for a good relaxing weekend to recharge the batteries, including some shopping at Aldi for bargains, some gardening at the lottie, and some dozing on the settee in the evenings.
