Sounds like you had a very successful day, Clive!
I chain-harrowed one of the fields today, a job I really enjoy, as it brings back happy childhood memories of working on the local farms….

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
Had Big Bertha out doing a wonderful job of rotovating, she certainly makes short work of a large area, when conditions are favourable!

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
This is a bit more like it but, as Clive said, it’s a job to know what jobs to do first….started really early this morning and got work proper done, and then shot over the allotments and planted 120 potato sets…..now time for a spot of lunch!

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
Another wet and windy morning and a jumper colder too!
Been potting lots of veg plants on, so the plants should be well advanced, when the time comes to finally plant them out….

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
Sounds as if you really enjoyed your day yesterday, Clive.
It must be so tough for the farmers trying to get the last of the Winter root crops out….maybe the supermarkets will pay them extra, for all their hard efforts….on the other hand!

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
I did 6 hours of hand weeding and 2 hours of grass mowing today, and don’t I know I have done it…..hips and back are giving me a bit of stick! But really pleased with what I got done….the ground is still too wet for seed sowing, despite the wind and warmth….

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
Absolutely chucking it down, so won’t be working again today! Morning Barney, I think food prices are going to go through the roof this year! There are loads of unsown fields around here, that the farmers are desperately waiting to get on….and there is very little livestock out in the fields yet! Gl...

Re: Spring Bits and Bobs.
More rain over night and first thing this morning…..had some large flower beds to weed through for someone but, have put them off, would have done more harm than good, walking all over them! The weekend is looking good, so hopefully things will start to dry out…..itching to get some things in, over ...
