Another glorious digging day passes…
…with nary a clod turned.
I have onions, garlic and broad beans screaming to be put in the ground and I’ve been nowhere near the plot in a ridiculous amount of time. Dark evenings, long working days and outrageously rainy weekends have not exactly made it easy.
Cross your fingers that it stays dry on Saturday.

Thanks for your comment on my blog - it’s good to see someone else with a healthy pumpkin fixation!

Is there really such a thing as a healthy pumpkin fixation?

Certainly not if you answer the door on Halloween wearing nothing but a pumpkin and saying “Look! No hands!” Or was that just me, then?
I checked metcheck.com and the weather looks best on Sunday for me but I’ve promised the mistress of the house a day out so I’ll be at the Formby Red Squirrel Reserve rather than digging the garden.

That pumpkin thing - ewwwwww! Surely that’s illegal.
Do the squirrels play eukeleles?

You can’t shut the buggers up if they get their paws on one - the reserve staff are under strict instructions never, ever to let them have one no matter how much the beg, devious little sods.
As for the pumpkin trick. Well illegal - without doubt, difficult - oh yes, painful sometimes but impressive - always! It’s just a pity that “That’s Life” is no longer on the tellybox.

It’s no wonder you had that little problem with your jeans.
