The other weekend (Bank holiwobble) saw us at home without the girls. We relished this long weekend and not just for all the time off. It was our first and last weekend in a long time where we had NOTHING planned... LOVELY.
We bought loads of plants and little mini plug plants and seeds for the little veg patch. Oh man how we dug and planted and watered. Loved it.
We planted (in no order of preference):
Calabrese
Cabbage
Sweetcorn
Radishes
Loads of salads
Rocket
Sugar snap peas
'Normal' peas (YUK - hate them)
Runner beans
French beans
Butternut squash
Courgette
Phew.
Then on Sunday we went to the Shapwick Village Fete which was ACE. It was so blinkin' English. There was bunting, Pimms, dog shows you get the idea... We stayed for 2 pimms (they'd mixed it pretty strong!) then went off down the lane a bit to the Anchor pub and sat outside drinking with John the Fish. Such a laugh. I won the toss so G was driving. Happy days.
Bank holiday Monday Allie, Andrea, Anke and Justin came over for a BBQ. Very last minute, very ad hoc, but very cool, laid back and funny. We all drank too much... and we scorched the garden from sitting around the chimmina.
