This morning 30% and I headed out for a walk with the dogs.
For the past couple of weeks we have tended to walk about a mile down the lane, and then turn around and come home. Today we diverted down the Bridle Path and had a splendid time enjoying the solitude of the empty landscape.
Our walk took most of the morning, and the afternoon saw me back out in the veg patch weeding. A few weeks ago I planted a row of parsnips. I'm embarrassed to say that, apart from watering them in the first couple of weeks, I have ignored them.
The "row" is now overgrown with weeds, and, having never grown parsnips before, I don't really know whether I have parsnip plants or weeds.
I did a little research on the internet and got an idea of what to expect. It seems that I do have some parsnip plants, but my row is crooked, which further added to my dilemma about what to leave and what to pull up.
Anyway, I spent a good few hours out on the patch and I have almost completed weeding the "row".
The reason for the early finish was that we had invited Mummy Sheila over for supper. This evening's fare was a takeaway from China Twon ... as usual it was quite splendid.
