One Bed Raised

The unskilled labour was supervised by Tubby Tabby.

Kitteh approved.

Raised Hopes

Work on the raised beds continues...oh,so,slowly.

How convenient it is to be able to nip indoors to make avail of plumbed ablutions or to pop the kettle on; a clincher frankly.

The bird box has to be moved pronto; it should not really be interfered with after Jan 31st but there are no signs of Blue Tit residents yet.

Critter Count

We cleared an area in our back garden for three raised beds by hand to ensure that we didn't injure any drowsy critters. We carefully relocated all to the wild and weedy woolly patch (er, hum ... The Garden). Total critter count:

• 7 toadlets (bufo bufo)
• 2 smooth newts (lissotriton vulgaris)
• 1 common frog (rana temporaria)
