Picked up five moor grow bags and a very large bag of compost plus four new large planters.
several more packs of seed are going in tomorrow.
I live in a rented house with a concrete garden :cry: so everything is in planters at least when I move they all can come with me to the next house or on the trailer to my BOL. :lol:

Next couple of weeks I will put in some more tatties in bags instead of rows this time, and some more onions and leeks. Wonder if I'm too late to do chives from seed ? I put some in already but too early and the frost must've got them.
Also got a notebook and writing down recipes in a better order - currently mine are all on wee scrappy bits of paper.

Trying to recover from jetlag by putting up my new shed.....it isn't working.

Garage was getting too full with preps and the motorbike, and the little shed is getting turned into a soundproof generator shed. Seriously needed more space to get my preps better organised, MrsCC was starting to complain about the "junk" hanging round the house

I keep telling her that one day she will thank me for all the "junk" :roll: :D

I started building a new mobile generator as a friend offered me a good price on the last one I built.
