Are you doing a Hugelkultur bed? Do you have experience with it because I'm intrigued by the idea?

I have no experience with it, but I'm going to give it a try. It makes sense and cuts in half the amount of dirt required to fill a 24" high raised bed.

A customer made a comment to me this morning about me usually working on Sunday.
I looked at him a little gormlessly, because it's only usually my regular customers that remember my shifts and I wasn't sure I knew him. He kindly repeated himself and I relised what he'd actually said was "You must be Sundae." It was Carruthers! How good to see another Dwellar, especially while I'm working. I'd had a bit of a frantic morning one way or another, including a large dot com order which involves messing up my spotless cheese counter. Something I shared with Carruthers who listened politely. I'm still here, but about to go on tills. Thanks for making my morning, Carruthers.

"Gormless" gives me a new vocabulary word to shoehorn in today.

Gormless - totally lacking in gorm.

Awesome! Next time bring a camera, I don't know if we've ever seen what Carruthers looks like...

Just got word that I'll be spending the first week of March in New Mexico on a field investigation. I've never been there before; I hope we have a chance to look around a bit.

I got an early Birfday card from Sundae! Hilarious envelope. She'd written around it about going to the zoo and seeing a bearded collie that looked like Carrot, except that dogs aren't allowed in zoos in case they scare the infinite monkeys.
Made me laugh. As did the card. 'It's grim up North'. Ahhh. It's the little things. Thanks hon  @ Orth: that sounds great. What sort of field investigation?
