Sunday of Productivity

After quite a nippy winter, the sun had shone its face and we got into the spirit of doing things. So much into the spirit that we got a little carried away... Joe started the day by tinkering with Alice. Slack Alice. Our new boat that is... I potted on the tomato plants which have been looking like they have wanted new pots for a while now. We then planted our first veg in the new house! A very exciting moment. We should hopefully be the owners of some runner beans and broad beans soon enough. I also split and re-potted some other plants like supermarket basil and a chilli. Having spent Saturday being taught by Joe how to make a bread oven out of cob at his community garden project, we put our skills to work in building the base for our home oven. We put some pallets together and screwed them into place...and then took it all apart and just piled up some pallets instead because you would have needed to be about 8 foot tall to use our first attempt. Having potted out all the plants it was 5 pm. Time for a cuppa and to...yes you've guessed it, build a greenhouse!For about 3 years now we have owned some old large windows which Joe acquired from work. After being assured they would come in handy , we kept hold of them and after a couple of hours of munging we now have something which resembles 3/4 of a greenhouse. Hoping to finish it this weekend. Along with the bread oven. Roll on Saturday (and some more sunshine please).
