oh how i love our light nights..........came back from the meeting and pottered about a bit till after nine, it's a bit close and midgies tonight but i got the weeding done at the front and put the courgette plants in their new home............they look lovely and juicy and i'm sure the snails will be delighted..........would we love the summer so much if we didn't have the cold and dark of winter to get through i wonder......
.........that huge weed in front of the compost bins is actually an aphid farm. i was going to pull it up until i noticed all the little blighters clinging to the stems and the ants tramping up and down with the milk buckets...........all very wildlifey and organic and hopefully if the ants are stuffed full of honeydew they won't be able to eat any of the plants...........
.....pond was all weed and no pond so i've refilled it and hoicked out the weed, i don't think it is leaking after all but we'll see what it looks like tomorrow.......chucked in rockery seeds, mowed the grass, it's hard to tell the difference between the wild garden and the rest because it all looks pretty wild at the moment......planted the dwarf comfrey where the runner beans used to be, sigh...........will have to think of something to make out of huge bunches of mint, there's a limit to how much mint tea a girl can drink, and as for bloody lovage..........
