Straight out into the garden, raking and levelling molehills. It's going to be hot today.
Errant seems fine, wanders off on his own, unusual, but hey, he is probably haunting the kitchen, wanting breakfast. I get a lot done in these early hours. Went shopping, I know it's Sunday, but was simply too tired to bother yesterday. Ofc I forgot most shops are shut, including Lidl, blast! Have to get those items later in the week. Still supermarket wasn't busy, which was nice and I got most things needed. MrSlim was raking when I got back so felt obliged to help - we finished the job. BUT MrSlim is going to mow again tomorrow. Stull it wont be anywhere near the last lot.
Spent some more time trying to work out crop rotation. Gave up and out a few seeds in pots. Then had anither go at the last vegetable bed. Leeks like triffids, some taller than me. One snakelike, reminded me of the grass snake hurriedly diving for cover this afternoon. Poor thing was sunbathing and I didn't see it until it moved. The hoglet was fine when I found it in the dark. Wasn't interested in cat biscuits any more, I donated it a large slug and watched the ensuing wrestling match with interest. If i had remembered the snake, might have felt obliged to relocate the hoglet. Still the prickles would probably make hoglet an uncomfortable meal.
Errant seemed fine, but his appetite has not recovered. Maybe it's the hot weather, he is eating about 20% less...should lose some more weight then. That would help. But tonight he seemed to struggle a bit getting up the stairs.

Is it a snake or a leek?

Edited to add:
Sunday, day of rest. Ha! Have not finished Fridays jobs list, or Saturdays. Soon I promise myself I will have a day off.
This week, next week, sometime...
