What can you do when it's raining?

[Jenny Green]

Just been defeated by the weather. Nothing to do in the greenhouse. I've been forced indoors and now I'm at a loss as to what to do! All my sowing's done (except for the seed I haven't got yet.
I can't bear to waste this precious childfree time. Please help!

You could have a look through some of Jerry's recommended websites, there's some good stuff there.

I wish we had been out of it. We collected a 8x6 greenhouse (freecycle) and deposited on the lottie in the pouring rain. As we were already wet we decided to plant 26 asparagus crowns anyway. Then off to home, a roaring fire and rudgy to watch.

The only good thing was at least they didnt need watering in

Aren't you the lucky ones, only getting rain!! As I type, we are having a most horrendous hail storm. One good thing about it is that the hailstones are smaller that the storm we had earlier.

Roll on global warming!!

Don't worry Piglet, it's just stopped and has started to freeze Thermal underwear tonight methinks.

I'd heard...

Well, I didn't mention it but it was hailstones too - I'm much too tough to even notice that kind of thing! Talking of putting on the thermal underwear, do you mean to say you've taken it off already? I tried going without it yesterday but it was straight back on again this morning - far too nippy round the sensitive areas!
I pricked out some shoo fly seedlings in the end. They were a little young for it but I'm sure they'll survive. Also known as Nicandra Physaloides. Well, I'm starting to show off now so I'd better go.
