New Year, New Start

I have had a pretty crappy time since the summer. Couldn't get down much during the hols, everything got very overgrown and I struggled to keep on top of it all. The weather didn't help a great deal, as my clay soil gets waterlogged and impossible to work very quickly.

I have a plan for the first few months of the new year, so I'll write it down and see h5ow much I actually get done.

1. get greenhouse cleaned, repair glazing and replace staging, using old inners of placcy greenhouses.
2. Put second greenhouse up.
3. tidy and weed strawberry bed.
4. weed and work over fruit bed.
5. strim and cover areas not likely to be worked this year
6. get workable areas dug and manured.
7. build raised bed (using the pallets procured for purpose) and cover ready for pumpkins
8. get bean trench ready and fill with rotted down stuff from the daleks.

If I can get one done for each day I go down, I might get somwhere!
