Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas, in whatever you choose to do!
Also, let’s hope the New year is a really good one, and the growing season is one to behold.
I’m also thinking about the wonderful forum members that have sadly passed….
Happy Christmas to one and all.

Yes Happy Christmas everyone. Christmas Eve here is grim and grey, can barely see the bottom of the garden. Typical of the year really, my solar panel generation is down 10% for the year which sums it up, so my main wish for next year is a bit more daylight please to make things grow properly. Our Christmas is this evening when we Skype the émigré grandchildren to watch them open their presents then we have what has become our normal quiet time as my wife recovers her energy and immunity.

Well it’s been a misty, dark day here, so no thought of digging!
Cook had produced a fine feast as always, so feeling a little full now….
And Sam and Lily said to wish you a very Happy Christmas, Clive.

I must stop mentioning digging ....
Here today it came out much sunnier than advertised to the extent that I was concerned that I hadn't opened greenhouses this morning as whilst it had started to brighten it looked hazy in the bottom as if it would brighten very briefly then go down foggy/misty
Thank you for the Christmas wishes.
I have just returned from a trip across the road and a plate of Christmas Dinner/Tea, Indeed the chicken was carved by my first primary school headmaster.
And when I say trip across the road it was actually a trip up my own curved slab door step upon my return.....for absolutely no other reason than I missed my footing having just come out of bright fluorescent lighting into the dark and my outside light didn't cut muster. So that's created another job on the very long to do list...maybe involving some PVA in the mix ?

Cook bought me four old Amateur gardening magazines, from the early 1960’s…..really interesting write up’s and I just love the adverts….some of the names I recognised from my childhood, others I had never heard of….
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Perhaps I need to open a door on one of my sideboard cupboards..I have a distinct feeling some similar may be lurking in there...
...meanwhile as it is quite heavy drizzle at the moment and not conducive to 'inverting soil' I think an assault to clear a pile of unread reading is required to find a chair to sit on in the front room......
