Real Seeds Aquadulce Longpod Broad Beans that I sowed on 3rd January. Just starting to put their heads up now so hopefully I will be able to transplant them into the new garden end of February maybe...
This bush in front of the house is one of the few things that's still green this time of year. On overcast days like today when everything is grey, it's a much needed bit of colour...
Yesterday we went for a walk out to the
Holms of Ire -- it's one of those landscapes that makes you realise how insignificant we really are -- even in Danny's hi-viz jacket he barely even registers!
Started on the repairing/replacing the fencing project this morning. Got a short section done before the rain came in...
These beds are going to be covered by the polytunnel which will get put up once the sand and cement gets delivered... This is a layer of
hay that Jean put into the barn the summer before she died, and then after the doors of the barn came down in a storm and the rain got on, the hay sat there and rotted -- well, waste not, want not -- it makes a lovely mulch. That in turn is covered with a layer of seaweed, so this should all make a lovely bed for me to plant in under cover.
Cat at the end of the world just before we crossed the causeway to Inner Holm. Quite a friendly kitty too!
Danny took this picture off the Western edge of Inner Holm -- not sure what these little red creatures are?
And here is the little bit of sunshine we had today. Yes, I am getting that desperate that I am resorting to photographing things that are really rain clouds!
