Bit of frost damage to my first early potatoes. Yet my main crop are completely unaffected. Nice to see some of my foxgloves starting to flower.

If anyone is looking at switching energy providers, I highly recommend Octopus Energy. I switched in December, better prices than my old provider and no exit fees.

A very different style viking! Lots of browns, really light acrylic washes, like REALLY watered down and layered to get the right look.

Seeds sown, all my potatoes are in the ground and a few plants planted into beds. Now to relax for 10 minutes in the shed while listening to Absolute Rock

Turning out to be a nice day. Only a quick visit to the allotment today. Fed the chickens, watered the greenhouse and harvested some purple sprouting broccoli.

I've also done some sowing. Peas, broadbeans, sunflowers, leeks and some speedy salad mix.

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country.
They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

If you're sick and tired of the cold weather, there's growing consensus that it'll turn milder next week.

However, it's likely to be a slow and gradual process...

Consistently hitting 180KG on the deadlift every week without fail. Tonight pushed for 190KG. Still feel like there's more in there.

Lovely and warm in the sun today, almost like spring.
