Well I managed to get the raised veggie patch weeded and enriched on Friday, which then crippled for for the following two days. So I've yet to get any seeds in the ground, but it does give me something to do this coming Friday. 😆

Haha, yes I'm very much a person who can give great advice, but I'm terrible at taking it. 😆
It's certainly helped my mental health though, seeing that glorious blank canvas, ready for seeds. 😁

Awww, I'm glad Mr Blackbird has found love @michael57 I love watching our pair hopping around, demolishing the tidy piles of dirt we've made. They're always in such a rush too. 😆

It is not clear why you planted raspberries near the wall. There should be a distance of at least a couple of feet. In 20 years you will be tired of these weeds with berries).

Old sleepers are poison.

back in the day on the farm we would use used railway sleepers for gate posts the more tar on them the better making them water proof they were more weather proof than your modern garden sleeper made from soft woods the asbestos dust could cause a problem from used sleepers tho and sitting on hot sticky tar could be fun

Ex Private Gardener in and around the Oldham, Saddleworth and Clayton in Manchester, former Grade 4 Gardener & Estate Ranger for OMBC Parks & Countryside. A career I regret leaving when I moved to Chesterfield in 2012.
Now I’ve got my own flat, I want to get a raised bed with a trellis with three pots, place some roses, all year round flowering perennials, seeds to attract bees, 🐝 plus various bulbs that will flower through the year. The British Legion do First World War Tommy Solar Lights, I want to install three in memory of my three great great uncles who sadly passed away during the war.
Then I’m going to be like Ma Clampet and sit on a rocking chair outside of my front door in summer, then when I get an assistance dog I can sit with him/her out there, testing there stay with all the cats around.

I know that north of Aberdeen, there is track that was laid in the 1930s! The Network Rail lads working late at night told me (I am often out very late with the dog).
