As I was leaving the plot last week I head butted the top edge of the door opening on my car. It jarred right down my spine. I had a stiff neck all week. Whenever I had to turn round I was like a lighthouse. I was still not feeling loose enough this weekend and togther with the tablets everything was moving at half speed.
We were supposed to go to my Auntie's 60th birthday party on Saturday but I could not face to drive to Manchester. Instead I had a pottered at the Lottie. More to get out in the fresh air than anything else. I had a bash with the new hoe. It is very good. I sowed some green manure. It just has to braodcast and to cap it off it rained last night so no watering required.
During the go-slow through the week I have been able to get the Elderberry and Blackberry wine filtered and racked into Demi-Johns. They are bubbling away nicely. The Rhubard wine was racked for the third time. The next step for the Rhubarb is bottling. I am just thawing the Damsons to start the a new batch.
Note to self; I have to find time to sit down and make the seed selection for next year. I have resolved to plant my spuds much earlier next year. Hopefully I can beat the blight.
