shop sign idea

4 comments

Hi good food lovers,
Do you remember when the corner shop had that sign in the door window "OPEN/CLOSED and depending on the time of day it would read one side or the other?

Well today being a smashing day ive been out in the garden from 9am until 9pm “but at 11am” visitors arrived
(both non gardeners) and as one couple said
“As the shops are closed half day monday’s we thought we’d call round,
they stayed until 2pm,
It was as they we’re going and we like a pair of muffets stood at the gate waving i thought i think i’ll get one of those shop signs that says “Closed all day today”

I did get a lot done but nothing like what i wanted too.

Ive cleared the raised bed of a few weeds and planted more tom’s and cauli’s cabbage, & sweetcorn,

The idea was to get stuff out of the greenhouse,
we really are weeks behind and the seed bill will be a lot smaller this year as everything has sat in there for so long.

I really enjoyed the afternoon breeze and at one stage one of the dogs needed a little cuddle “as she really likes to feel loved” she went for two years"
locked in a cellar so no wonder she sometimes feels the need and i have to stop what ever im doing to give her that extra cuddle and talk to her,

As i sat on the garden bench chatting away to “bough”
i glanced up at the old oak tree and just caught sight of a sparrow hawk flying off with a young chick from a nest in its beak,
The other birds we’re going mad but like myself they couldnt do anything.
Nature can be really cruel sometimes and i wish i had’nt seen what ive just told you about “but i did”.

Im up early again tomorrow and im hoping to really get at the borders and all those weeds, i know ive plants hiding in there,

Well i hope your all having a good time in your gardens and enjoying this nicer weather,
So all thats left for me to say is “CLOSED” until same time tomorrow.
Regards Dungy.
