Apologies for the weather

Not now - obviously - it's gorgeous here, but this summer I fear will be a wet one. I have just bought a new hose. OH has been, I would say happlily but I would be lying, putting it together for me as like everything at the moment it was flat packed.
So whilst he got on with that, I planted out the sweet peas, a second wave of peas, some beetroot and a row of carrots. So you can expect much weeping wailing and gnashing of teeth in about a months time when the carrots haven't grown/ have carrot fly/ have been eaten by slugs/ have been dug up by a cat/ have been got by volcanic dust...
Meanwhile
OH had triumphed over the hose and watered them for me. The boys sat in the car and played with a whoopie cushion. Philistines.

  2. Why on earth would boys want to mess around with vegetables when there's fun to be had with a whoopie cushion?!

  3. I think that's an omen for a hosepipe ban this summer. We can dream.
