It gets a bit hot working in the full sun out there. It’s lovely in the shade, though.

I’ve got nearly half the soil moved and have ordered another batch tomorrow. I’ll schedule a complete collapse day on Thursday, I’m really not used to this much physical work. I’m using some cheap metal edging for the sides of the raised beds, and am making a bamboo scaffolding around it to both support the sides and stop them bowing, and to allow me to put some shade over the beds in summer. It’s going to work fairly well, but it’s tough putting it together because all the bits want to fall over and it’s not very stable. It would go much better with another set of hands to hold things, but neither Miss Meow or Mr Woof are up to the task.
