Saturday 22nd March

Up at 8.15am

Headed out to the shops at 9.00am

When I got back from the shops I had something to eat...actually two things, which I had picked up in town. (Please note I am not calling these healthy eating...they are of course treats ;-) )

12.00pm - 1 x McDonalds cheeseburger and a cream doughnut for afters... :-)

I went out into the garden to work. Sadly although it was lovely weather first thing, by the time I got out there it was going down hill. I wanted to try and put some fleece over the fruit cage to protect the buds on the trees from possible frost still to come. Alas it was too windy and in the end I decided that it might do more harm than good...so gave up on that and moved the trees into the poly tunnel where they can bud to their hearts content and be safe.
Then I did a little digging and collecting lots of dead leaves that had gathered at the edges of the veggie garden (for putting on the compost heap). By this time the odd smattering of rain had become a more persistent downpour...somewhat soggy and grubby I gave up and went indoors.

 

(I am not quite as chunky as I look...I am wearing four layers under that coat to keep warm)

I ran a nice bubble bath and had a soak. Paul kindly made the dinner tonight...

6.30pm - A piece of battered cod, crinkle cut chips and mushy peas.

I had a Twix bar for afters, all washed down with a low sugar can of Vimto.

I am just finishing this, then I will be sitting down with Paul to share a large packet of crisps and watch some telly.
'Speak' to you again tomorrow :-)
