It is a lovely sunny( - it was when i started for 1 hour cloudy now) day today, cold but dry, soggy underfoot. i have dug a little more - well a lot more nettles up. then my back plays up and have to stop after 10 mins - BUT 10 mins less nettles!

Last year it was completely covered in nettles i am trying to reduce them. i think if i  i dig a little each dry day i may  over power them! 

As I step out the back door this was what  I saw, brambles on the back fence. i did get a large amount of blackberries last year but...........

  Now i have chopped the brambles all the way around the back of the greenhouse and now have a large  pile of brambles waiting for me to do something with!

 Ii had a good prune with the gooseberries and the apples.
