It's been very quiet around the garden recently!

Mainly because of the pouring rain and the fact that with my hips I haven't been up to making the treacherous trek across the muddy lawn to get anywhere!

I'm hoping that tomorrow sometime the stronger half will be able to use some paving stones we have to make a path up the garden to the greenhouse. Which will be great as it means I'll be able to go out in all weathers and not have to worry about serious injury on the way!

Apart from that not much is happening at all, the garlic has started sprouting, the potatoes are ready to be planted (though need to make room for about 3 bin sacks) and the weather seems stable enough to start sowing everything else!

It's hard though knowing when to plant as I still don't have a date on which I'll have somewhere to put all these seedlings! I am hoping that by the time the baby is here (around 7 weeks now) I will have at least one bed ready to plant into and the children will have their square garden area.
