Cheers, bro!

This time it's me that's just about to head to bed.

[Bucket1]

And a question for cat expert Val, how come cats hate the carriers but will happily jump into a new cardboard box?

Happy Friday, one and all!

Another pleasant day here. Just after noon, with mainly sunshine and a temperature of 21°C/70°F. Forecast is for it to get as high as 25/77. 

Strangely, the northwest seems to be getting the better of the weather just at the moment, with what is usually called The Sunny Southeast of the country being up to 4 degrees C lower, with threats of heavy rain/thunderstorms.

Just potted on a dozen lupin (lupine) seedlings that will hopefully provide a colourful display next summer. Runner beans should be ready for the first harvest in about a week's time, as should the garden peas. The broad beans are starting to form seed pods, but I reckon it will be maybe another two weeks before any will be ready for picking. Carrots are coming along nicely (some already harvested), as are the cabbages, beetroot and Swiss chard. Sowed a row of winter Kale earlier in the week; the seedlings are already through the ground. Spuds still doing well.

I'm meeting a couple of friends for lunch shortly. It's something we try to do most Fridays, but had to stop for a few months as the restaurants were forced to close due to the pandemic.

They're generally not locked into cardboard boxes and taken to evil places like the vet's.  It's also their choice to jump into a box vs being shoved rudely into a carrier.  All my other cats have never minded the carrier. They would go right in when I opened the door.  These guys fight to the death...

The day, the garden and lunch with friends all sound lovely. Enjoy.
