well today i decided enough of sitting indoors reading hundreds of gardening magazines, yep im afraid im a bit of a fair weather gardener or should i say i WAS. determined this yr that no matter what the weather is, i am gona spend as much time as possible out there, i do love my garden just sometimes need a push.
so tonight i shall go to my bed with a sore back and knees but yessssssss it was worth it.
i have dug and weeded one side of the garden and managed to plant 3 new plants. i just wish my digital camera was working to show ye all my hard work.
as tomorrow is a bank hol here i shall be back outside to do the other side of the garden .

aye Mikec, its a great feeling being outdoors.
was another lovely day here again, got some seeds down and a few viola's put into planters. I have a pond in my garden with hopefully 30 fish, unless the heron has been having lunch lol. the last few days they ( the fish ) have been really lively, due to the warm weather i would imagine, so time to start feeding them again .

Well done, Irish! I was out here doing the same in `not so sunny` Yorkshire today. I have a newly developed garden , many plants went in for the first time last March, so spent today spreading mulch everywhere in the hope that I will have a beautiful display this year.....What we gardeners do, must be mad, could have stayed indoors and read a book!
