cool

Feeling a bit weird this evening. Haven't made any art for a couple of years, at least. I used to be quite good at it. Just had a look through the latest copy of "Tate etc", and found other people's art kind of meaningless. Then I found myself feeling meaningless, because I'm not making art myself. A bit bizarre. It's something I need to DO, but I'm not sure quite where to start again. Empty, a bit dissociated. Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? #art #creativityloss

seed pod for which plant? Intriguing...

Lunch! First sweetcorn from the plot this year, and it was very sweet. Mmmmm

almost a meringue, or Tunnocks tea cake without the chocolate, or some kind of biscuit with a lightly crisp surface...

also my birthday! Apparently, Shakespeare died on his birthday (according to my dad's old Encyclopaedia Britannica). Didn't know about Turner.

A handful of healthy sprouts for use in stir-fries. Yum. Enjoyed a brief plot trip this morning, and a rare bit of winter sunshine before this afternoon's gales. #allotment #GrowYourOwn #organic

Had a fun afternoon engineering with string to save some seedlings from mice in the greenhouse. I just love making things like that. Too late for the winter lettuce, but I managed to save some of those last week to a box at home on the roof terrace. #allotment #GrowYourOwn #organic

thanks. Good idea to make a habit of it, if you can remember, for those with visual issues who rely on the alt text. Lots of people don't boost toots without alt text, either xx

PS missing alt text?

I've not come across it before (still a beginner!), but a quick search agrees that looks right

looks to me like the flowers are coming from the plant that the bindweed is growing up

Shape of one in the moss. Some kind of lizard type creature, head looking to the left, front leg over the edge of the post.

Looking good. Good luck! Something for later - consider water-soluble oil paints, when you have a bit of dosh. Acrylics dry so fast!

Letting some light and air into the squash bed. Kind of worrying, cutting back so much, but refreshing once done. I'm looking forward to this Victor turning red! As my son says, "funky".

They survived slugmageddon and have grown a bit!

A good haul of tender young beans of different varieties from today's trip to the plot. Determined to harvest them before they get too large and tough, after last year's experience!

A colourful jumble of young beetroot. Some are a bit on the small side, but I needed to clear the bed. Nice and colourful with the mix of red and golden varieties.

Good luck, little squash. There was a bit of slug/snail damage elsewhere on the plot after yesterday's rain, despite the Strulch, but thankfully not too bad. The forecast is warm and dry, so I'm hoping these chaps do OK.
