This morning I spent a couple of hours writing up my notes on Newfoundland, and then spent a while photocopying some documents that I need, and making the odd telephone or two.<\/p>\n<p>Then apart from that I&#8217;ve been tidying up. The front of the house has been weeded in some kind of fashion and then I put down some plastic sheeting and put some pallets on top, and there I have my dustbins &#8211; all 4 of them. I&#8217;ve also cleared a pile of stones from in front of the house too &#8211; the big ones to the rockpile and the smaller ones to the paths between the new raised beds, and it&#8217;s in place of the stones that I put the pallets and the garden furniture that was up on top on the old <em>potager<\/em>. I&#8217;ve also rearranged the herb beds and the trees that I&#8217;ve been keeping in buckets until I can clear the orchard.<\/p>\n<p>This evening I was invited to the annual general meeting of the Virlet Cultural and Historical Society and it seems that I&#8217;ve been talked into doing a presentation of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.erichall.eu\/2010c125.html\" target=\"_blank\">my trip to Labrador<\/a> sometime at the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Lieneke is back again too and so I went round for a chat. She&#8217;s taken me by surprise as I had put the Sankey trailer across the door of her barn not expecting her to be here until the beginning of May as usual. I&#8217;ll have to shift that tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s been my day. Hardly tiring, is it? So I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s up with me right now.<\/p>\n<p>And in other news, I have gherkins and cucumber rearing their ugly heads in the cloche, and potatoes in the early potato bed. <\/p>\n<p>Things are slowly coming to life here. <\/p>\n<p>I wish that I was.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-540 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='540' data-nonce='b03a502c30' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-540 lc'>+1<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-540 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='540' data-nonce='b03a502c30' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-540 unlc'>-2<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-540 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, I dunno what&#8217;s the matter with me just recently &#8211; I can&#8217;t seem to last the pace any more.
