How on earth do I get that up to 10,000 a day with out falling over....

Yesterday, we were 34 years married so we packed a picnic and went back to Cherbourge to take advantage of our cite de la mer annual entry card. We visited the Redoutable, big and impressive nuclear submarine. Great thing about this museum is that everything is in English as well so we donned our tour phones and hopped aboard. I would recommend this to anyone who loves the smell of engine oil and marvels at miles of electrical trunking, dials, stop cocks and Dos looking computer systems. The only observation was the amount of people who overtook us, the French ...bless them...don't queue and push their way forward, we had not realised that part of the deal was to see how quickly you could get from the propeller to the torpedo tubes ! .... We lit a fire last night, popped a bottle of champagne, and got as close as we do to convenience food by opening a box of salmon en crout.....very nice and relaxing.

To counteract our easy and celebrationery day yesterday we have today hit the garden with a vengeance I have dug out our 07 compost and barrowed it up onto the allotment to dry, we have a few issues with the way we are composting and we now have a plan to put a roof over the 4 composting boxes, it means turning them all over this season but we will see the benefits next year. Mike has installed his ditch tube and dug out a five foot entrance to get the DIGGER in so we are getting closer and closer to that event. I counted 250 steps to our new dump for nasties ...weeds and the like...I have started clearing the allotment and wanted to give the trudging across the wood into a value and today I walked 1000 steps transferring compost and 1000 steps dumping weed.....how on earth do I get that up to 10,000 a day without falling over.....
