Grubbing In The Dirt, Again!

Isn't nature beautiful

Just a very quick post as I've got a million things to do today, no day of rest for this gal! It was very quiet at NC yesterday, no Giles with his dry wit and no dogs to keep us amused with their antics. Alyson and I just kept plugging away at hand weeding the apple tree border where the hairy bitter cress and groundsel had been having a right old party.  The ground was pretty damp so we both looked quite a sight by the end of the afternoon, but we did have a glow of satisfaction when we finished the job and improved the look of that part of the garden immeasurably.

"Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing, it's when you've had everything to do and you've done it"
Margaret Thatcher
