Fresher...
The weather is fresher and so am I - a Fresher. Started the RHS General course at Reaseheath last week, today was the first full day of teaching. Thumbs up all round so far - especially the canteen! A good hot lunch and a coffee for £2.85. We covered garden surveying in the morning and had an entertaining half hour with tapes, string and pegs squinting down lines trying to guess at right angles (we lacked compasses, you see...). The afternoon was a return to Miss Horsefall's Latin class of '75 as we staggered through plant nomenclature ('With me everyone, Narrrrrow, Narrrrrarsssss, Narrratt!)Into the car for the hour long drive back through the Cheshire countryside accompanied by Gardener's Question Time and This Sceptred Isle (1530-1590). Pure bliss...
In the real world it's raining and cold with 12mm of rain in the last three hours and barely 10C. Must get some wood cut - nearly cold enough for a fire.
