Spring Bits and Bobs.

Too near The City and The Airport here for anything as exotic as swallows and cuckoos sadly!

Two swallows have moved into our garage this week. While I moved out of the greenhouse last evening when the heavy rain started to include thunder and lightning, doesn't seem sensible to stay in an aluminium structure.

Planted out purple sprouting broccolli plants this morning and sowed a couple of rows of carrots this evening. Yesterday I drove across the moors to pickup the compost I ordered and even that had gone up in price. If food prices also keep inflating, as they have been forecast to, vegetable gardening may become a profitable necessity.

My brain is officially addled! Went to pay my plot invoices yesterday & a total disaster with my computer not accepting them. A nice guy there had them all filled in & listed but despite both of us checking & tweeking we only managed to only get one to go through. The others looked like they were going in the system but just disappeared. Checked the bank but nothing untoward there just the single one going out so goodness knows what is wrong with the others.

It will be the good old cheque to pay for the last 3 whether they are happy or not, not wasting any more time now or in the future! They can sort out the invoice & plot numbers numbers when they get the cheque!
