    Even having a treetreetree break usually involves weeding or plucking at the grass on the border of the veg plot which is why 40 winks in the caravan has become a good idea.:sleep:

    Trouble with sleeping on the plot is, I wake up at dawn & don't stop gardening until dusk, when its time to go fishing.:catapult:

    Can get a bit tiring.

    Well, thanks to the editing software, it now looks like I was doing something much worse than having a cigarette:wallbang:

    I will sign the pledge. But my pledge is to not sit all day relaxing in the garden - but to get up and do some gardening for half an hour - every day (or two).
