Okay, so I didn't sort out the compost heap last weekend - was taken to see England beat the French at Twickenham instead!
Things have slowed down on the renovation front while we try to finalise our extension plans with our Architect. Think we're almost there but some technical issues due to the slope make it more difficult. Hopefully we'll have them sorted by the end of the month and ready to submit for planning.
Meanwhile it's time to think about planting seeds for the summer - we've got some lettuce and rocket, must also get some tomatoes. Not sure how much else to get as the garden should become a building site this summer.
Also spent time today doing non-supermarket shopping. Tried out the great farm shop in Frampton and discovered a farm up the road selling their own Gloucester Old Spot pork - tried their chops tonight. Tasty but not the most tender we've ever had - difficult to beat Millsteads pork (when it was in supply!) or the Chatsworth Farm shop. At least it's not intensively reared, with virtually zero food miles and is not expensive. If only we had some space to rear piggies....
