Woodchip Mountain


" I'll just try and aim for three wheelbarrow loads and see how I go ." I told my husband  .


                            I did fourteen wheelbarrow loads .

                                         In the pouring rain .


Down in the Fern Garden I can see that it is going to look really nice . It really highlights the green of the ferns and mosses in there .

I just got on , shovelling , wheeling and dumping , soaked to the skin . At least the rain was keeping me cool .

                                                     (how I feel)

I reversed out of the gate and walked into the other wheelbarrow knocking it over ..... sigh  🤣

Time for lunch , soaked to the skin . Not sure if I will continue this afternoon , mainly because all my gardening clothes are dripping wet , wearing my old cagoul just to look sensible really , it certainly isn't waterproof anymore .

My walking boots are soaked and covered in mud ...... I need a new pair of wellies !

  1. My mum always said the more you do now the less you do later, I'm not sure if it works that way with gardening.

  2. That's real dedication. At leasr you have the pile to yourself. When a load is delivered to the allotment it's a free for all.
