David braved the heat today to clear another section of garden of forsythia, bindweed, ancient ivy rocks and rusty metal Very Happy

it's all levelled out and the chooks have been moved onto it leaving space for the construction of Sophie's adventure playground, our summer holiday project Cool

Well done Flo Very Happy

I spent quite some time yanking out weeds in the veggie patch which have grown 6" in three days it seems Evil or Very Mad

Then I stopped for icecream...

The sweetcorn's sprouted about a foot anorl and has flowers coming at the tops - yay Very Happy

I was beginning to think that was stuck on pause Rolling Eyes

got some GH toms ripening at last too - its amazing what a couple of days of sun does.
