  1. *Stormforce~beka* Great work on the buddleia though. And the daffs look good. Yep, back to rain and cloud now. Was hoping to take my new set of wheels for a spin this evening, but looks like the approaching rain will scupper it.
  2. Dorsetbred Just living in the moment. Don't like the look of the heavier stuff off NW France. Looks like more than the apps were forecasting this morning, for later on.
  3. Just ordered 36 small English Yew bare root plants, as we're getting a bit close to the end of planting season. All for what will hopefully be two low clipped square hedges.
  4. *Stormforce~beka* Don't worry, there'll be plenty of bee friendly flowers going in, in their place. That's part of what we're trying to do.
  5. Dorsetbred Just been out to check for you and I can confirm that the dandelions are blackening nicely... Thanks all.
  6. Another cloudfest. Feels pretty cool too. Should be back in boots across the fields tomorrow. Then more rain, so possibly a one-off before the wellies return.
  7. Thought I was getting a day off today, but arrived at Mum's to be told that I needed to get on her flat root to fix the guttering and clean her uPVC cladding. Weather was much nicer down there. Bit of Sun and warmth at various points.
  8. Cloudy and murky this morning. Off down Fawley way for MD, in a bit. Only had an hour, so I've applied some weed and feed to the grass this morning. I'll whisper it quietly, but now need a bit of rain for it to do its thing. Day off tomorrow, so back filling the sleepers will be the order of the day.
  9. *Stormforce~beka* I'm not. I'm done. Listening to the Rugby outside, with a pint. I'd go in and watch it, if I could stand up.
  10. Dorsetbred Sound advice, I'm sure @*Stormforce~beka* Just leave it for now, I reckon. Got away with it today. No rain after the early showers, so a full day's work finishing the retaining sleepers. The only downside, is that I'm absolutely knackered.
  11. Absolute cracker today. Might have some more sleepers down this afternoon, if I haven't used to much water in the postcrete.
  12. *Stormforce~beka* Don't give up on that one. Stick it in a pot and see what happens. Just don't it cut back past the old wood, as it's unlikely to shoot from there.
  13. *Stormforce~beka* It shouldn't need much watering. They're native to the med, so won't mind that. You could have saved yourself compost and fertiliser too, for the same reason. Have you got any broken oyster shells for the chickens? I don't see why that wouldn't work for drainage instead.
