This is one of my favorite Porcupine Tree Songs.
They played it when we saw them at The Cleveland House of Blues on Friday 18th May 2007 - what a gig !!

Porcupine Tree - Not Cleveland HOB!
Hot and Bored !
Well all is quiet on the work front.
Got to the boredom point after 2 days this week.
Apart from cleaning my desk or filing Tony's 3
buckets of work orders I can't find anything to do :-)
Strawberry crop is starting. Picked
a dozen last night - will have a glut by the weekend!
Ordered a canning/preserving system online today -
and some pectin - so should get the Strawberry Jam
made this year.
The weather is hot and dry, I'm tired of watering the veg.
garden already and it's only May! Looks like we are in for
a hot, dry Summer. Though looking at the forecast it is threatening
T-Storms on Saturday, just when I have our cook-out planned.
It's been so arrid that the Spinach had started to bolt last Sunday
- so I quickly chopped it all out of the garden. Bob washed, cooked
and froze it - boy was it delicious - so one good crop at least this Spring.
No flowers on the Peas yet
- don't know that they will do too much if
it stays this hot - oh well, who enjoys shelling
that many peas anyway ???
That's about it for now -

The Garden is starting to buzz
The weather was glorious all weekend.
Got the garage all cleaned up and reorganized yesterday - I can find my tools now !!
Getting ready for a big planting in the veggie garden this week - Peas and Spinach are up - need to plant more spinach - I have a couple of rows of Spring Onions in and a bit of lettuce - need to do more of same.
Then, onto Carrots, Cauliflower, Cabbage, Beetroot and Broccoli. Need to make sure I leave some space for the Tomatoes, Peppers, Basil, Cilantro, Aubergines, Green Beans and Pumpkins !! - need to get Bob to make more boxes methinks ........... the Strawberries are flowering right now - can't wait for those - need to get some jars in so I can make Strawberry Jam this year.
Got a nice bit of red on my legs and arms so won't look so pasty once it goes brown ......
....... hair got a little lighter in the sun too .........

Spring?
Well I don't know what happened to Spring here in central Ohio.
After a mild start to January we had a frigid February, followed by a near normal March and early April. Buds on trees where starting to burst, the daffodils were smiling, then WHAM !
Straight back into Winter again, 20 some degrees (thats F - not C!) and snow. Easter looked, and felt, more like Christmas. The emerging leaves on the lilacs were frozen. The daffodils look like they are playing a game of Musical Statues. All through the Easter weekend it kept coming.
It's now April 11th and it feels like we are starting to get Spring again.
Here is hoping everything will recover and catch up.

Well this is new for me.
Only set this up so I had an account to post comments to my sisters blog!
Don't know how often I'll post, but we'll see.
