A lot better day and a fantastic sunny evening.
This morning I had a flash of inspiration and decided to plant a couple of marrow plants in order to take part in the annual Sawrey Marrow Show, we had a pile of manure in the right location and so 10 minutes with fork and spade and the bed was ready, a quick trip up to Sawrey stores where a they had some marrow plants and the deed was done. Updates will follow.
We had a visit from a couple of the New Year gang, John and Margaret who now live in France, they are over for a few days and brought daughter Alison and grandaughter Holly, she would insist on calling me Robin!!
A walk up to Moss Eccles before tea and then after tea Spain v France.
