<p>The border along the drive is great when it is weeded however it has been a lot of work.</p>

<p>I've had a gardener looking after one section but there was still a significant area that needed attention.</p>

<p>Finally I decided I had had enough so decided to have some turf laid to take one more chore off the list of garden work.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I found a Landscaper who gave a reasonable quote and within 3 days of starting, the turf was laid. I think it will add about ten minutes to my lawn mowing which is a lot less work than the hours I put into weeding this space.</p>

<p>At this time of year the vegetable plot needs some attention. I've been digging and preparing sections to plant garlic, onions and peas. A week ago I planted broad bean seeds in pots in the greenhouse.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When the soil is wet it's quite heavy going and I cannot dig for too long before the back starts aching. It's a lot easier than digging clay.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The newly sown areas need to be covered before the woodpigeons and squirrels start to peck at them or dig them up.</p>
