Upping the speed on my house sort out because I have a house inspection on Monday. I suspect my contract won't get renewed unless it's up to scratch. Last time they sent an overly aftershaved teenager in a shiny suit from the letting agent, but this time it's someone from an itinerary company which sounds awfully official.

Plus we've had news that compulsory redundancies are on the cards at work so I'm updating my CV and trying to work out what job search websites are good nowadays.

Awfully horrible too! Good luck with that.

The garlic that I planted out seems to be doing fine. Growth has maybe slowed, but no sign of rotting or dying.

I feel the season is on the starting blocks.
Well, the darned snow is keeping me off the plot. 10 of the walking onions are about 3" tall already. If the weather warms a touch, I think I'll let them play outside.
I'm starting to itch and twitch now. Can I sow some seeds yet? PLEASE?
Well. I did sow some onions indoors. What can be next? Peppers? Leeks? Spring onions? Don't want to miss the moment.

Chillies and peppers can just about go in ideally on a heat mat but short days still might cause issues unless we get some decent sun or use a led grow light. Eg https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/385336032698 ... R-b2nsC5YQ
If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong ;)

Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine
