The wind is a-blowin’, the rain is a-fallin’… but it’s Friday night and That’s OK By Me.
This weekend is forecast as a complete wash-out. I only plan to set foot into the windy wilderness that is the Smallest Smallholding once I’ve bought some bird food. The bird feeders need topping up so I’ll have to nip to the shop tomorrow and try not to get blown away. I can’t see me doing anything else out there.
The veg plots look like a shambles. My carrots are still in the ground (probably utterly inedible), and there’s still some holey cabbages and kale left, but ther than that - nothing but weeds. Once I have Fridays free I might be more inclined to tackle them and get some garlic in the ground before the frosts start setting in.
I still need to order and plant some green manure. I do have an ability to leave things far too late. Is it too late?
I can’t keep up at the moment… but at least I can use the weather as an excuse this weekend. I’ve got other things on my mind and other things to deal with (and I’m being deliberately vague and uninteresting - don’t you just hate that?). My Smallest Smallholding can slumber for a bit longer. But I will be back. Very soon.
