Quite a productive day today on several fronts. It was raining again first thing but It cleared up later and I planted a couple of packets of my seeds - the beetroot and the carrots. As I hadn't been able to get any seed trays I had saved the plastic containers that the chicken thighs come in from Waitrose. I gave them a good wash and punctured holes in the bottom with my little awl before filling them with the seed compost and then the seeds.
Here are the two trays filled with seeds and put into my greenhouse.
As there is still no sign of the broad beans coming up in the raised bed at the allotment I also put a few in some trays.
After lunch as the sun was still shining Jasper and I had our constitutional and then I did half an hour on the keyboard. I am practising the 'twelve bar blues' it would seem. A way to go!
Later I began the second side of the patchwork cushion. I made good progress with that and will try to get it finished tomorrow.
Mostly rubbish on the TV so I watched another Waking the Dead that I hadn't seen before. However, the GBSB is on later which I love.

When we were living our summers in France we decided to put on a dramatic show for the village - extracts from Shakespeare. Together with four British friends (two from Cowbridge who were staying with us and two who lived in the next village) we performed pieces from A Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth and Henry V. Above is the poster I designed. We had a small but interested audience. I think we knew we were on to a loser when Marie-Therese asked "Who is Shakespeare?'!
It was great fun and I may treat you to some photos in days to come.
TOT ZIENS! STAY DRY! STAY HOME! Stay - Jasper!
