23rd August 2014
It is a long weekend this week which means Friday and Monday off. As you can tell I am very happy about this. Mind Calum has roped me into putting shelves up in his room tomorrow. Today, because he is at his work, Magz and me went to get the wood. Calum check online and wanted some redwood for the job. I got him MDF instead about an half inch thick. At that thickness it will hold just about anything he can think to place on it. Redwood would have been more expensive as well for what he needs the shelving for which is storing his ever increasing collection of clothing. Next we just need him to clear the bathroom of all his aftershaves and lotions, hehehe. He does like to smell nice.
I got out into the garden before heading to town. I checked the apples to see if they were ready to drop yet. They aren't so another week or two of waiting. I thought with the chillier nights we have had this week that maybe... But no. Mind it does give them time to fill out even more. Of course they are well large enough, at least the cooking ones are. More pie then, yummy. I did notice some of my carrots could add to my dinner tomorrow so after I finish here I will go pick some. Last week I picked my peas and just at the right time for them to be as sweet as sugar. They were lovely. My parsnips have a bit of growing to go yet I think so leave them for now. While I think about it the grass at the back need cut again. I'll need to squeeze that in provided the weather holds but for now the carrots, hehehe.
