Green Fingers


The sun hasn't stopped shining all weekend and it actually feels warm. Saturday we ended up going to a couple of garden centres, a little premature perhaps but we bought some plants for the new house, including a couple of strawberry plants (all I need now is an ice-cream maker). Spurred on by this we also planted some seeds ready to bring on in the new greenhouse and veggie plot, including enough lettuce and tomatoes to keep us in salads until Christmas. Yesterday we headed into Durham for a walk along the river which left me with a feeling of complete contentment. The problem now is that it's Monday morning and the last thing I feel like doing is working. As yesterday was St George's day, the patron saint of this green and pleasant land, today really should be another bank holiday!
