Revision Excuses

May 6, 2008

By earthwoman

I’m supposed to be at home revising for my exams, now a mere 2 weeks away, so of course the shed absolutely had to be painted today.

When that was finished I planted the beans outside, resulting in more teeth sucking from the old timers who absolutely refuse to gamble on the last frost date (more crossing of fingers on my plot).

Then the tomatoes, peppers and aubergines got cosy in the geometric grow bag arrangement.

   I’ve never been keen on the old timer idea – never plant until…..you must ….etc
   Best to do what fits in with your own schedule and hope for the best.
   Free spirits, that’s what we are

   Good luck with your exams! I love the way your tags show your priorities – your shed is clearly the most important thing in your garden.

   Amanda – you are a top quality sleuth, the shed is just about the most important thing ever!

   Easygardener, I definitely adopt the hope for the best approach but I think I will sow some extras as an insurance policy, sometimes the oldtimers and the old wives know a thing or too.

   Ah, a girl after my own heart. Never do today what you can put off til tomorrow, or something……

   My Hubby is going to build me a potting shed and I can’t wait! Hope the exams go ok.
