Normal service!

Phew, 2 TMAs submitted, one albeit on an extension submitted just a day and a bit after the original deadline. My computer doesn’t  like me doing TMAs and has colluded with Word to corrupt and freeze my TMAs. I threatened it so now I use Open Office but checking that things look ok in Word. My modem also conspires against me, dropping occasionally DNS or whatever so I lose Internet slowly - takes 5-10 minutes to restart and regain Internet. Anyway, enough of those problems.

The one course is a science course. Bit woolly because it also looks at the media, but it looks at a couple of important topics relevant to gardening. One is Medicinal Plants; the other is Climate Change. Yesterday, the final course mailing arrived but didn’t have time to open it then as was battling with netbeans for the other course.

There is blue sky out there, the sun is shining. Looks like the perfect Spring day. British Summer Time starts tomorrow.  Will be venturing into the garden today, perhaps even the allotment. Got some onions and garlic that need to be planted. Just ventured into front garden to inspect my OH’s work after mowing the daisy-infested lawn, and weeding. I don’t mind the daisies - their smiling flowers are quite cheerful. There’s also dandelions in as well. The lawn isn’t a golf putting green. Saw the first two seven-spot ladybirds of the year. Hoorah for Ladybirds and their larvae.
