Default anybody planting?

I have been potting up bulbs for the last week. Itching to do other stuff as
well. Weather has been good and rain maybe here soon. What's everyone else
up to?

Most of my brassicas are in and the peas and broad beans are up. Various
greens, lettuce, kale mizuna etc are in trays waiting to be planted out.
Strangely I am fighting off aphids and citrus grubs, it ought to be too cold
for them but it isn't. The pasture is looking good and still growing well.
It may be another warm winter when the grass never completely stops.

Not doing a damned thing.

Havent got around to starting the tomatoes that I plan to try growing
inside the big north facing patio doors in a sort of greenhouse.

Have been eating the potatoes from those that grew over the summer.

Have planted some more lettuce seedlings, but they havent done that much yet.
