From the allotment

126 onions (bought 50 got 50 free)

Strawberries for jam


Went to the allotment yesterday morning to cut the grass on the path and gather up potato shaws and weeds pulled last week. It was a pleasant morning and I made good progress although it was a bit soul destroying knowing all the work I was doing would not be for my benefit. After 2 hours I was exhausted, so decided to stop. I was taking 5 bags of garden rubbish to the car when the heavens opened. I got soaked, then had to take bags to the recycling centre. Soaked again. I was tired, feeling a bit down and sorry for myself by now. I was looking forward to getting home and having a bath. No such luck. I had told our cairn terrier that I would take her a walk when I got back. She was waiting for me at the door!! So I put her lead on and took her up the park. We were both drookit when we got back but I felt a lot better. I had a bath and put in Aran Arromatics "After the Rain" bubble bath. I lay back and read my book for a wee while. BLISS!!!!
