I'm trying something new with my diary. Rather than just publish it on this website, I'm also going to record a new weekly video, called "The gardening week'. This diary, will be the show notes for the video.

<aside> 💡 I'm no longer publishing the audio from the video as a podcast, as it’s too expensive and not worth the effort when it seems that YouTube will soon be providing a podcasting experience.

Monday

I left Debbie working in the front garden, laying down old potato compost on the beds and fresh wood chip on the paths. We finished harvesting the front garden veg on Sunday and we wanted it all ready to go with new veg in spring! I went cycling!
