It's good to dig and mow

Thinking of the crops that we will sow, plant, reap and eat makes digging and weeding more satisfying! It makes back pain bearable! In addition to half the potager dug and weeded a few days ago, two smaller plots, plus beds either side of a stone wall are ready for seeds or plants.

A new lawnmower doesn't have to be repaired every so many minutes and within no time the lawn has been tamed to make us THINK we have the garden under control. Looking around one thinks about all the other jobs in the garden to be achieved.

But bliss is to sit beneath the blossoming plum trees imbibing a glass of beer whilst the evening sun's rays set in the west!
