greenhouse temperature today

always milder in the greenhouse, round about 2pm the car temp was telling me it was 4c on the road. 
the barometer in the house  showing a really high pressure, the weather reports do say dry and cold into next week. 

this weather is ideal for hunting New Zealand Flatworms, six yesterday and three today. its  devastating to have them in the garden, after discovering them in the spring I have collectetd thousands this year and  drop them into a bag of salt. . over the last few years I always wondered why I would dig over the soil and never see a worm, even though I bring bags and bags of horse manure and well rotted muck with worms in it from the farm. so now its obvious why.

''on blogger since December 2005''


well, the title kind of says it all. 

so in these 20 years there have been  many ups and downs. 

there are still cats. though different ones now. 

still gardening , also was a break from that for a while . 

there is no longer kayaking. I loved it so much but in that I am now a ''has been'' . 

still horses. there were always horses. not blogged about because it did not exist in 1972 which is when the learning properly started. thank you Meryl. you are much missed

started of cynical and have since multiplied that by many hundreds of percents. well done world. 

and I would like to thank Lidl for selling a one at a time cheese toasy maker. genuinley love it.
