I've cut up, brought in & stacked about 2 cords of oak I'd cut down about a year when I attacked several trees which were shedding acorns over the horses pasture.
Rather than tractor & benne I tried transporting the wood using my old Pug 806 with passenger seats removed & this was a great success.
Only about another 3 cords worth to go but that can wait.
Nothing to do with seeds I know but it's been "A busy day" for this old bloke :D

Well done you two - I've had one of those days when you rush around like a blue a**ed fly not having five minutes for a cuppa, and then at the end of the day you've not got a lot to show for it. :lol:

Still tidying up the borders of old stems left on to protect plants over winter. Trundling trailer-loads of topsoil around to give new plants a decent start. Sowed toms, cucumbers, courgettes and peppers and hoed in between rows of broad beans, peas, onions and garlic. Long may this lovely weather continue! :D

The seeds are a mix of some delivered just before Brixit, Kings & Suttons, some are local supermarket (Le Paysan) but mainly from Graines Baumaux, third year of using them and so far so good, but time will tell.
