The owners of the plot of land next door are now in agreement to sell, they are registering the property in their names, they still haven't suggested a price and the people on the other side are now interested as well. I must have it it will add value and comfort to this house.
April 27th
Today is dry, so far, the air is quite warm though there is not much sun. I think it is the best day we have had this month. My tomatoes have not moved in the entire month so I have given in and bought 3 tomato plants and 2 peppers, other wise I doubt I would see any tomatoes until October.
My first sowing of lettuces are just peeping through so something is happening, the strawberries and raspberries look happy too so hopefully I can look forward to some fruit.
I have cleaned and painted the downstairs sitting room, it looks much lighter now, incredible the difference it made when I cleaned the windows! It means that I can't light a fire until next winter so I hope the weather stops being so cold and miserable.
