A shiny greenhouse and a weeded bed in front. That'll do monkey, that'll do. #allotmemt #gardening #solstice

Just spending a couple of quality hours washing the greenhouse whilst it's low on contents.
The question is: are the marks on the inside of the glass, or the outside?
The answer appears to often be: whichever side you're not on. 😳🤣🤣

The daffs are out - it must be Spring. Did I accidentally hibernate through #Christmas and #NewYear? 😳🤔
Anyway, Happy Easter! 😉

At the Green Therapy group I help with I wore my festive black "Bah Humbug" hat today, and then my ponytail band broke so my hair fell down. Which lead one chap to call me "Bad Santa". 🎅
It was decided I looked after the naughty boys and girls... mostly the older naughty girls apparently. 😳😂😂😂

Just realised I forgot to post what I got up to at the allotment yesterday. Mostly continued with the winter tidy up: some old,c wind ravaged bean poles taken down, outdoor tomatoes cleared away and some of the spent flowers and raspberries along the fence chopped down. Compost bins filling! 👍😂

That's some Yuletide door wreaths made for friends and neighbours, and importantly one for my own front door!

Often I can be found walking along old, abandoned railway lines, but today I'm walking on the white lines in the middle of an old abandoned road.

Had my first #Christmas card arrived from a dear old friend, who's sense of humour is still completely functional I see based on both the card and the enclosed "ruler". 🤣🤣

Ah, cheese and pickle sandwiches. Are you even making a long rail journey if you haven't made a few before leaving?

Slightly worrying that the railway company thinks "fast trains come through this station regularly", what with Stratford-upon-Avon now being a terminus station with the buffer stop just out of sight round the corner. 😳😂😂
We've not had a fast train through the station since 1976.

"Please do not stand in this area", as the implication is that the roosting birds will crap on you.
Sitting down on the seats provided to get crapped on is fine though. 🤔🤣🤣

Walked to our #allotment to check and water the greenhouse and got there just in time for the heavens to open up as I walked up the site track. So once again the mad old beardy weirdy is watering plants whilst it's raining. ☔🌱 #gardening

Summer is officially over at my #allotment as the greenhouse tomatoes succumbed to the recent cold and have gone on the compost heap. Winter is coming... ❄️🌨️☃️

Looks like the good citizens of Tiddington have also been preparing for #Christmas, with their tree up on the little green near the village shops and pub.

Usually I grumble about people and shops doing #Christmas before December, but I made use of the nice weather today to put the railway Christmas banners at both the town station and Parkway out a day early. #CommunityRail #GrumpyElf

I just noticed that there's a hint of "Imperial Death Star interior lighting" about this Chiltern Railways train I'm on.

Yay! @westmidrailway.bsky.social have got rid of the stupidly sized paper tickets and gone back to standard ISO card sized ones from my local station ticket machine! Excellent... No need for multiple folding to fit them in my phone case. 👍

I had a little bit of #Christmas #pudding mix left over this morning, so I filled a little metal pudding basin and put it on top of the big one to steam for 8 hours. The big one is now resting in the larder but I can sample the little pud.
I think I've done ok based on this taste test. 👍😋

The freshly baked #Christmas cake looks ok. Just needs to cool down just a bit more before going into a container for the next month.
