Chitting

It's not a day on which to venture out and about so we have been doing lots of indoor jobs. 

I've done a bit more Yorkshire Wolds planning and discovered we have two of the four maps needed which will save some money.  I've also sent off for a couple of quotes from companies which do the B and B booking and baggage transfer.  I also managed to get my head sorted to plan the next Club newsletter copy date and to identify some folks to write articles, and fired off e-mails with questions.

Tony, meanwhile, opened his box of seed potatoes and did his chitting, utilising the egg boxes saved over recent weeks. 'The aim of chitting is to produce plump, dark green or purple shoots about 1in long....The process takes roughly six weeks,'  then they will be planted out.  The four varieties: Lady Balfour, Charlotte, Cara and Wilja are all now safely ensconced on top of the kitchen cupboards in their egg box nests.
