So I start this Blog with no title as I'm hoping to decide on one as I type it.  I hope that this entry into my  Blog diary is more feel good than my previous one, and how can I not,  March is truly upon us now and spring has started to explode in front of us!!!  The sun is finding its hat, daffodilikins are sprouting faster than Joan Collins has face lifts and hazzah I have begun the sowing of the seeds.

Now before I get into the frankly fascinating anecdote of loosing my seed sowing virginity I must make a public statement.  Just because the winter is over and spring has begun to poke out from inbetween the cracks it is not ok to wear flip-flops not shorts.  Hollister guys and girls I am talking to specifically its just not cool  and I say "not cool" in a warning way not a,  "that's not cool" as a fact because no one can argue that the flip-flop/ shorts combo are awesome.  It is a warning due to the fact that if people who where shorts and flip-flops during the months from September to April they run the risk of being rugby tackled by me and that includes whether I am on foot or in my car.  Rant over, stay safe folks. When you think flip-flops just say no.

Now to the matter in hand veggie planting.  I began my gardening life with Carrots, Lettuce, Cabbage and Tomatoes as they were the most urgent of my seedlings to sow before the deadline for the sowing, at the end of March/ June, has past me by.  Something that did catch me by surprise ( proving my continuing naivety of  gardening) how friggin' small are seeds?  And there is a Hell of a lot of them which I need to keep planting over the next three to four weeks.  But I gotta say like a person who has bought a puppy and not realised how much exercise it requires or more accurately the thoughts of  a man chomping into a Big Mac and loosing the battle to the lump of fast food lodged in his throat blocking his wind pip  "shit!! Have I bitten of more than I can chew? Cough, Cough"

As relaxing as gardening can be I never realised how much work it is.  But this is just like me I get excited about something, start with a flourish but I am starting to realise that my attention span can be quite short and I can feel like giving up quite quickly but I vow to keep going I will finish this.  But luckily on the day of sowage I had my mate dangerous Dan help me out and hopefully by following the frankly vague instructions the seeds will sprout and be awesome but that will not happen for a while yet.

To make things even more interesting (please keep your sarcasm) we have started betting on which veggie will sprout first and how long it will take to do so.  I have said three weeks and tomatoes.  Dangerous Dan said two weeks and I believe carrots was his veggie of choice.  Well I feel this particular Blog is dipping into a boring down hill spiral, so I think I will bid you adieu and leave you with this thought I want to kill Rachel Berry in Glee, or at least give her a good dry slap, and marry Sue Sylvester LIKE NOW!! Also vintage The Simpsons  is a truly beautiful thing.

Have a good week everybody!!
