Pumpkins not Squashes

I bussed it to the Mind shop again this morning, with a slightly quicker journey time than on Saturday because I caught the Skylink airport bus, which goes straight from town to Alvaston. I took my own lunch so that I didn't have to suffer Bird's weird sandwich ingredients again!

After lunch Connie arrived. She suffers quite awful migraines and has been hospitalised twice because it was thought she'd had a mini-stroke, but talking to her calmed me a bit. Margot too has been to the TIA Clinic because of a migraine.

Off the bus and home, I put the washing on (hadn't had time this morning),had a cuppa, hung the washing out and walked up to the allotments, where I found two pots of Cosmos on my plot, thanks Simon. I forked over a bed and planted out the pumpkin plants I'd grown from seed at home. But why pumpkin, I'd intended to get squash seeds.... doh, but they'll be fine for roasting, soups etc, and if not I won't grow them again!
