WHAT JOBS ARE WE DOING IN THE GARDEN TODAY - 2017

And even so some new beans turned up there last year

 

You can have my 4 overwinterers - 4-5 months of cleaning out hedgehog cages twice a day will test your resolve .

 

He he, I'd love it. Used to have a big family of Rabbits when I was younger and used to the constant cleaning from a Chinchilla and now two woofers!

I found a hog visitor at my new house and was so excited. Then literally a week later someone had run him over down the road. Absolutely gutted-he was a beaut.

 

Oh no, poor hoggy. Unfortunately thousands of hogs suffer this fate every year. You can put a mark on the hedgehogs with white masonry paint or white water based tipex, which makes the hog more visible in the dark. If you live in an urban area though where there are lots of people this might attract unwanted attention to the hog and thus create another problem. Its difficult.

 

I take orphans as well as the injured and underweight hoggies. Baby hedgehogs will melt even the strongest of hearts

 

Did you think they'd been dropped by a Swallow?

 

Pouring rain and wind today...staying inside and making scotch eggs whilst planning what to do in some troughs

 

Managed to get in the garden yesterday and got loads done and the garden is looking pretty tidy now. Still plenty to do but at least now all the old foliage has been cleared, clems cut back, vines pruned, etc. Give it a week or 2 and it will be full of kids toys again

 

@NCFCcrazy that looks lovely. Love the box/box balls border....might have to steal that design!

 

Storm passed and I got out an started to tackle the weeds



Sun was so hot I had to take me fleece off
