What I intend to do today/tomorrow!

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

Tomorrow I intend to have a right good tidy up!

Will compost plants that are now not needed, although I really hate doing it after I have nurtured them so long!

Vixy! you are in my locality, if ya need some plants gis a shout! I'll gladly drop em off!

Or any one else in my vicinity! Give us a nod! the car could do with a run out!

dig up second half of shed base. Hopefully cooler weather forecast will make it easier than the first half :-)

Right, toms tied up and sideshooted. They're getting a bit like a jungle...

Leeks still to do, but the bed is now fully prepared (by Mr Snoop, my contribution was the instructions). I have a grim headache, so they might still have to wait till tomorrow.

The idea this weekend is to get everything tidy and sorted out so that if the weather is as terrible as the forecast next week I won't be too frustrated. (The forecast for York is currently for over 2 inches of rain on Wednesday alone!).

Tomorrow pot up 60 germinated pea plants for second sowing and general tidy round, take instructions from SWMBO as to what she wants harvested.

[Small pumpkin]

Feed Humphrey ( the pumpkin)
Maybe some more weeding (not if it's still raining when I finish work)

[Scoot]

This morning a plan on feeding my tomatoes and thinning out some of their leaves as it's becoming a bit biushy in the greenhouse. I'll then do a bit of weeding on my garden. Got some logs to cut after that. Dinner time and then out to the pub all day/night with the lads. Why not eh?

[Penellype]

Feed Humphrey ( the pumpkin)
Maybe some more weeding (not if it's still raining when I finish work)

I was wondering who Humphrey was in an earlier post of yours!

[Potstubsdustbins]

All done as planned plus gave the toms a good soaking off Tomorite and harvested more peas for SWMBOs collection.

Tomorrow I intend to do not very much at all a nice relaxing day with SWMBO is planned.
