You know you are a bit of an obsessive when you are out in the garden and polytunnel at seven in the morning.
You are moving about plants and topping them up with soil and well rotted fym and even counting them:
I have already planted over twenty other ones around the gardens this year.
I will probably sell (hope to!) them at a carboot sale this Autumn. They are already potted up and can therefore be planted at any time of year
Regular readers know I have hundreds of free plant pots and I have a constant supply of homemade fym/compost.
A part from some organic hormone rooting powder and my time. Which I have lots of! It costs me nothing to make new plants.
I can see myself making plants for the rest of my days. Living in the countryside next to the sea.
You have got to have an hobby or you would be very bored. I suppose I could always grow vegetables? Oh I do that already.😊
Brew beer perhaps?
ReplyDeleteWell there's not much good beer over here Tigger's Mum. We once brewed some real ale from a beer kit and we were not impressed with our efforts. Recently I have been trying craft beers brewed here and sold in the supermarkets. Our homebrew tasted much nicer. I think a nice smallholding or allotment in Dorset near a Wetherspoon's would be the first thing on my list if I won the Euromillions.😊
ReplyDeleteYou need to find someone windswept who needs to plant a hedge....
ReplyDeleteI do GZ. I heard of someone who had long wavy hair and his nickname was indeed Windswept. I jest not.
ReplyDeleteAs a sideline you could do stripograms throughout West Cork - dressing up as a fireman, a policeman or maybe a parish priest. The colleens would go wild for you Dave.
ReplyDeleteI doubt it YP. I wouldn't mind a newspaper veg gardening and Prog Rock column in a national newspaper. I suppose I will have to write blog posts for free instead?
ReplyDeleteMaking plants, living in the countryside, next to the sea sounds idyllic.
ReplyDeleteOn a nice day Jules. Thanks!😊
DeleteYou could start a YouTube or Instagram channel with paid for content. You could call it Dave the Plantsman.
ReplyDeleteOh wait...I think someone got there first...

I don't want fame I just want some dosh JayCee. I have a face made for radio😊
ReplyDeleteWe have a saying here about people consumed by a hobby or the like. We say, "Well, it will keep him off the street." You can't get in too much trouble playing in the dirt, can you now?
ReplyDeleteVery true Debby. The countryside would be very boring without an hobby or two.
ReplyDeleteMy mum always said 'busy hands make light work'
ReplyDeleteYour mum was right Marlene.
