you go out into the garden to do one job and end up doing summat else.
Take this morning for example, I go out to plant up some shrubs and end
up unravelling a dead lilac tree and some 3 years growth of Russian
Vine, I did win but only just :-)



Same here. Went out yesterday to plant 5 dahlias. Spent 3 hours pruning,
weeding, tiding up. then cleared a gutter of leaves, then swept the patio etc.
Spent about 10 minutes planting the dahlias :~)



Applied insanity, especially in spring. Still, it beats computing
(which also has the characteristic you describe).

LOL
thanks for the first smile of the day Nick :~)

I am feeling very smug, I went out this morning to prepare for and plant
2 Espalier pears and 15 raspberries, I've just come in having completed
the job. Mind you if the plants had not been delivered and had to be
planted asap, maybe a different story.
