My sister in law. My brother told her to go down to the allotment with me
and hoe. She hoed up some of the paths. Bad idea.
She has no clue what the difference is between a weed and what we have
planted that is coming up.
So we did training today. You see those little grass-like thingies?
they are the spring onions coming up. The little red ones are beetroot.
a weed almost got away because it was red. Not a beetroot.

It's not easy having the children there either. They sulk if they cannot
do exactly what they want, there was almost a fight today about who would
water the potatoes and having a 7 y o in charge of the hose is not a good
thing.


Your weather has been so dry lately your spuds need watering? Whereabouts
are you?
