<\/a>And here’s a complete surprise. <\/p>\nIf you look very closely at this photo you will see a pile of light green shoots rearing their ugly heads – or rather their very pretty heads – through the soil. <\/p>\n
Yes indeed, the Indian corn that I had brought back from Canada and for which I paid just 33 cents for a packet, has burst into life in a major way and this is so impressive.<\/p>\n
I planted them very closely together thinking that I would be lucky to have half a dozen but it seems that almost all of them have come to life. This is so impressive.
<\/p>\n
Even more bizarrely, the bean plants that grew this year, all … errr … four of them, all of which looked a short while ago like they would be struggling to survive, have burst into life as well. <\/p>\n
They seem to be throwing tentacles everywhere too. Not has-beans by any means!<\/p>\n
In fact later this morning after I had finished on the laptop, I went to gather some wood to make a climbing frame for them, but I was beaten back by the rain. That will have to wait for another day<\/p>\n
After lunch, seeing as it wasn’t possible to work outside, I mixed a pile of polyfilla and sealed all of the joints and screws on the plasterboard walls of my little cupboard. I want to crack on with that. <\/p>\n
The plan is next to sand it all down again, add another layer of polyfilla, sand that down, paint the walls with some of that cheap pinky-orange indoor crepi stuff that I bought ages ago, lay the flooring, and then build some shelves in there.<\/p>\n
That will give me a place to put everything and hopefully tidy up a pile of stuff out of the way so that I can continue in the bedroom and the shower room.<\/p>\n
I hadn’t finished either. <\/p>\n
