              Not much to report today either! I just watered many of my plants as with the wind of the last couple of days they had dried out somewhat.

              I had to sweep the balcony today again as between the strong winds blowing compost from pots & troughs & bird droppings it looked a right mess!

              Just passed my tomato seedlings into the flat as we are forecast possible frost tonight.

                      Don't worry about it @Balc I've done the same several times, but I deleted the posts after I realised I'd done it. In my case it's lack of concentration :heehee:

                                Dandelions really are nice flowers when you stop and properly look.
                                There is a couple of meadows not far from me that are totally full of them and they look amazing for about two weeks every year.
