Sunday 26th April 2020
Did a bit down the lotty.  Went with Phil to get 5 bags of quality manure from one of the farms he works on.  Got that down the lotty.   Got bean trenches dug and muck in.  Got bean row up - am thinking I will wait for a couple of weeks longer before putting beans out.  First potato leaf spotted too which was good.
A spud finally shows it's face - was beginning to worry!!

Bean row sorted.  Am about 10 plants short as things stand but they are appearing all the time in the greenhouse

Up early - half a day. Busy morning starting at 7.30, finishing 1.15 (although picking up emails all day long).   Took Lily for a mile up the golf course.   Weird to see golf course with no flags on the greens.  Very sad.

Took big lad for a 3 mile circular walk taking in the lotty - which i gave a bit of a watering.
Three potato leaves now appearing on the potato row - was worrying they'd not appear as we've done something a bit different with the spuds this year although we have done Maris Peer and Maris Piper varieties in the past we've never used supermarket spuds that have sprouted - got to give it a go ain't ya!

Up at 6.30 (one of the benefits of lockdown is I get an extra hour in bed - happy days).  Dog walked.  Meters read for Scottish Power and submitted.   Work day begins!  All good stuff.
