Lighter evenings

On Friday evening a couple of us met at the Railway Inn for a few beers. We talked about all sorts of topics; fishing, beer, Land rovers, cars in general, allotmenting, allotment business, manure, greenhouses and had a chat to Barney the farmer. The weather continues cold although Sunday afternoon was sunny for a while. The consensus seems to be that digging the ground in the frost is a bad idea. That makes me feel a little better about the lottie. Most folks seem to think, like me, that sowing seeds indoors starting mid February is the right time. Six weeks from mid February is the end of March. By then spring should be well under way. That gives me a month to get the paths done.

I am supposed to be getting my Land Rover back soon so that means I should be able to truck the gravel for the paths about to my hearts content. Getting Land Rover backs means I can empty some of the stuff out of the garage and back into the Landy where it belongs. The evenings are getting brighter. It is not dark until 5pm. I can start to do outdoor stuff in the evening soon.
