Up at crack of dawn as always. Dog walked, papers fetched, into the office. After work walked big lad round three miles the usual. Watched Game of Thrones final episode - bit of a damp squib really. Went down lotty with the wee dog - not sure what I went for? Saw a whopping great helicopter come past.
Took big lad a walk after - the usual three mile walk.

The usual. Got home from work on time for a change. Took small dog to lottie - did a sort of temporary fix for the broken gatepost on the plot. Weeded the onion patch. Later on when I took big lad out I saw a cracking way of doing onions - you put a sheet of material on the ground with holes for the onions and therefore no weeding - remember for next year - in fact might even do a bit this year using an old compost bag for the cover with holes cut out in it. 2.7 miles with Big Lad down Mayfield and what have you.

Wednesday 22nd May 2019
Up at the crack of dawn. Papers, dog walked. Dropped tomatoes off at Dougs on way to work so a bit later than usual into the office but still in for 7:30am. All good. After tea went up to lotty. Did a little bit more fixing on the gate post and then got two pea rows sorted. Back home for 7.15 then off out with Big Lad. Decided we would go up to Mount Pleasant farm through the fields then back down the back of the cemetary and what have you. Not the best walk I've done with him - he managed to jump into a load of mud but the views were good along the way. Hey ho.

All the usual, up dead early, papers, dogs etc. Busy day in the office then off to SW group - 4.5lbs off (the same 4.5lbs that went on last Saturday - can't quite work that out?). At the minute I'm all off track but have a cunning plan to start in June. After work we went down to lotty with the peas that I've been growing in gutters for a month or two. We got those into the ground and then back home for 7.30ish. Took the big lad a shortened walk due to having stubbed me toe during a 2 mile walk at lunchtime. Very bruised it is too. Never mind. Started watching a film called Super 8 I think - very good elements of Close Encounters, Goonies and a number of other films - will watch ending at some point! Watched a bit of question time and then off to bed.

Almost didn't get up in time this morning - 5.14am. Did all the usual. Have put me runner beans out this morning to start hardening them up. Will put them back in the greenhouse tonight and then perhaps get them in the ground tomorrow. After work went to Nottingham to see a band called William the Conqueror supported by a band from Ilkeston called Those Howling Sounds. A good night got in at 1.30am a little bit tipsy it has to be said.
Saturday 25th May 2019
Up early. Papers fetched. Little hungover. Did tons of potting in the Greenhouse which I need to be getting sorted out for Tomatoes soon. Delivered the runner beans and french beans down to the lotty. Took Mr H's birthday present over. Took big lad another walk.
Sunday 26th May 2019
Went to Lotty early doors, got bean row up and runner beans in.
Only had an hour and a half as Missus wanted to go to Alstonefield Car Boot - it pi$$ed it down on us! Such is life. Over to Ratcliffe for a family do in the afternoon - good fun. Got home about 7.30 took big lad out.
