Nearly at the end of the week! I started my morning with a bikini wax… after which I was thoroughly awake! (I need to do a proper leg shave too… want to go have some Japanese baths next month and the Hobbit-Feet have to go!)(Snicker)
Anyway – good news. The new travel cards arrived. Just have to activate them tomorrow morning – if I can’t manage it I will dash to the bank so they can hold my hand through the process!
We did a tip run today. It was good to get rid of all the rubbish and start new with empty bins. On the way home we diverted by the beach and filled up on seaweed grass as I wanted to sort out the raspberries before leaving the country.
Annoyingly, Jeff said he had unstitched the netting at the end of last season, so I got it back out and stitched it back up.
Only to find it in no way fit and the other netting was the one we used (Happily already stitched) (Lesson learned: Wrap netting and LABEL)
But that is the story of my life lately… every task taking way longer than it should! (I did roll my eyes a lot though)
Finally got the right netting on and pinned down.
Next – newspaper & seaweed
It took up a good portion of the day, but I am really happy that is done. The grass and weeds should be minimised so we won’t come home to a feral jungle!
I had promised my pumpkins that I would relocate them… enough daylight left now to keep pushing on.
They were really starting to burst out of their pot!
The seaweed here (no newspaper) has really kept the weeds to a bare minimum.
All done. Of course they got tucked up in their protective ice cream containers and sprinkled with a little snail bait just in case.
Then a bit of weeding
I also took time to throw a little mulch around the snow peas, then planted out some marigolds beside the potatoes
And to happily finish off a lovely productive day, I spotted some colour on the strawberries and the first of the corn up!
I hope your day was lazier than mine! I am ready for bed!!
Cheers!
