Re: Winter bits and bobs Been a lovely day, over 10°C. Got ⅔ of my potato bed dug, hope I can do the rest and sheet it over before the rain comes tomorrow.

Re: Winter bits and bobs Here's the second post for today, OH.
Warm and sunny here too so I spent the morning in the rhubarb patch lightly forking around the crowns all of which are showing nice fat buds then adding some liquid feed. Must get them covered this afternoon although it has turned cloudy. DW and I really love those early pink stalks.

Re: Winter bits and bobs I have got a few days holiday from work, so am enjoying the lie-ins Can't do anything at the allotment, still far to wet. Seeds sorted.... Just waiting for some warm weather to arrive that needs some sun cream

Re: Winter bits and bobs Just thought this one should come back to the top to remind us it isn't over!

Re: Winter bits and bobs I like that, Geoff!
Yes, blowing blizzards this morning and, although the sun came out this afternoon, the temperature never rose above 2 degrees here and the NE wind is vicious! Should be better tomorrow, though.

Re: Winter bits and bobs Out trading in Kerry yesterday and rhought would die of cold. Still bitter and have brought in all seed trays and battened down frost covers with rocks in the gale. Still, several young US tourists were out without woolly hats which we knit and sell...
