A busy week ahead

Back in Cheshire late last week and recovering from night-shifts. Quite a noticeable difference after two weeks away from land...

A few hours at the field Thursday and Friday, mainly levelling soil in a few low spots ready for more grass seed.

An over-proliferation of dandelions (fortunately a lot less than last year), have had an attack on two fronts: flowers and leaves sliced with the strimmer and where possible, extensive roots extracted with the Fiskars tool.

A couple of visitors, always a pleasure to share ideas and outlook.
Quite a bit of wildflower growth in the hedgerow coming through and a mystery flower to identify?

A busy week ahead with odd jobs and landscaping to progress.
Meanwhile, a weekend of Goth music in Sheffield before a return to things pastoral...

Just about finished reading a book 'Gardening - philosophy for everyone' some parts are a bit heavy, but more than a few essays overlap wilderness and cultivation with arcadian thoughts and imagery.
