Hello allBetharooni, I love the canula sleeves idea
Your lists are epic!
CLF, hope you feel better now.Todays list:Dog walk, free exerciseUsual morning clean / tidy up routine, kitchen, bathroom, make bed etcSorted / decluttered another cupboardDD came round while waiting for her car to be MOT'd, did sandwiches and cake for lunch for all 3 of us from storesDug up the rest of the early / second early potatoes from the raised bed, planted out parsnip plugs (home grown, the only way I can get them to germinate, unconventional but seems to work, sowed carrots, radishes and beetroot. Decided that the leek plants can grow on a bit before final planting out (they are 'heeled in' at present), watered everything in.OH helped pick mangetout, strawberries and loganberries. I now have 3 bowls full - will need to 'do' something with them. Probably pie filling - don't need jam this year, as I made loads last.Paid milk bill - not moneysaving, but needed doingMade a big chilli for several dinners, used lots of home grown vegAlso got a rice pudding in the oven to use up slightly OOD cream, unseasonal but we like it cold anyway.Put the chilli and aubergine plants out on the garden table as I am fed up with the little flies that the compost seems to attract in the conservatory.Not spent anything apart from paying for the milk2 -
Evening all!
I jumped straight into the shower and then my pjs after work! I got so many strawberries I'm having to give some away!I started using Prolific yesterday and so far i'm at £18 and waiting for £4 to clear.
I plan on making a cuppa, put on a face mask and watching tv now!

HelloTwo separate visitors took up most of the morning, and I was working this afternoon, so apart from dog walk and cleaning routines, I haven't had the chance to do much!Not spent anything though, watered the garden, picked strawberries and loganberries, and had more of the chilli I made yesterday for dinner. And there is still enough to cobble together with cheese and pasta for tomorrow's dinner1

Phew, had 7 year old GD to stay overnight on Friday, and have just recovered - she assures me she will be back next FridayManaged some gardening before / between rain, dead headed roses and annual flowers, fed everything that needed it, picked broad beans and repotted 2 tomato plants that I was given the other day. My 'own' tomato plants are rubbish this year, weedy and yellow looking, combination of being put out later than they would have liked due to the horrible weather, and I suspect, a bad batch of compost
I have never had this variety fail before. Hopefully we will get a few fruits off them before they expire!
Also did the shopping. Should only need a couple of things later in the week.2 -
Had an absolute fail this week - achieved very little compared to what I’d hoped. However I’ve probably achieved more than I would have if I wasn’t focusing and putting it down here. Next week will be better but, due to work being super busy, my list will be considerably less.
