My son in law has built and fixed my huge new greehouse to the house wall yeasterday - 6'x 6'x 2' - well it's the biggest one I've ever had!
The trouble is that having got all sorts of goodies starting off in my heated propagator last month, Ian got killed, and they sort of got forgotten. I have a few very leggy tomato seedlings, and a few other bits and bobs that I'm not sure of. I had bought a lot of unusual things where you don't get many seeds, and used the seeds all up, dammit! I'd switch it off, but I went mad and got some baobab seeds, and they need the heat, plus up to a year to get going...

Anyhow, in the garden my peas are coming up, I have planted a load of minarette and dwarf fruit trees, plus another blueberry (3 now) and I am getting good rhubarb! Still need to dig over where the beans are going. Fingers crossed for them as I haven't manured it. They'll get a top dressing of chicken shit pellets like all the rest!
My dog problem is the watering. When I use a hose, my dog finds a way to where I am and frantically tries to play with the water, even if it means dancing on the beds.

My son in law is desperate to help me organise stuff, as he is wanting to get into gardening at home, and they can't afford the stuff he wants to do, him being out of work at the moment, so he is planning to resurrect my nice shady patio and bbq.
