Catch up.

Not a lot has been happening in the garden up to now - wet, cold and dark is not good for gardening. 
Things did happen during the shutdown....
There was a family party in the Forest of Dean...

This was the galette that we took to share...
Immie and Jack were here off and on....they collected all the ice from the various buckets etc and tried to make an ice palace....
The moles finally got their comeuppance - or with moles is it a comedownance? Neville lent me his moleing kit and I caught three. I have levelled the hills and spread grass seed about. 

Immie will be pleased to hear that the tractor is up and running again after a short period of battery charging. 
Several vegetable beds have been rotavated. 
A small amount of pruning has been done 
and the compost heap has been turned. 


The next big project ( to keep me quiet during the quiet time in the garden ) is a train layout complete with hills and tunnels and bridges. Immie helped me lay out the track to check that it was possible. 
This is the layout in the track software. 

And this is a 3d image of it.
