It has been a lovely day to day, but only managed to sqeeze in half an hour in the garden. I have got all the holes in the lawn to let the air in round the roots. The three quarters that I had done have stopped squelching now when I hang out the washing. So it is working.

Got the final quater done today, it has gove so much liverwort and moss in it. One job leads to another.

Hi Arlene, I am not an expert in lawns, I think my instict would be to wait until early spring. No doubt some will know for certain and let you know.

I had a plastic greenhouse, my husband had packed it away for the winter, not realising I would still need it. I have a few plants in the to over winter. It blew over one day so I have had to attach it to some trellising with guy lines, so that should sort it out.

You would have lost your greenhouse in my garden today, Marge! Soooo windy! I was raking leaves and they were blowing away from the heaps I raked up. Comical, really.

Hi Marge, glad your lawn is draining. It was a lovely day here too but I couldn't get out in the garden today because of appointments and the like. :o(
Tomorrow is supposed to snow.

Hi Gilli, yes we are forcasted for snow. I have been to Leeds today by train for the German Christmas Market. As I got off the train there were hail stones on the platform so it is coming.

SoI have got no gardening done, my husband has turned over a third of my veggie bed while I have been out. That's good!
