Well I can do the working... and the gardening...

... but obviously not the blogging..

wow it's been a long time since i put an update on this, mainly because any spare time I've had around the house has been dedicated to ripping weeds out in the back and front gardens.

Today, I am ill and so sadly I have time to update the blog :)

So what has been going on since the last update?

I have dug out and cleared an area for our herb garden, which I will be putting various plants in over the next few days.

I have bought an incinerator which is not being as useful as I hoped - it turns out burning weeds you have pulled out of a pond is not really that easy :)

The composter is going well - I have just found that you can compost a whole egg which is cracking news as we have over-bought on eggs recently.

Talking of which, I'm still keen on getting chickens, though I'm concerned about the noise that cockerels may make (and the impact this may have on my day job).

I'll try and update more regularly... and maybe get some photos of what I have done so far.
