    This is the first step of the tomato trial— making labels (from ice cream containers). We will have to make labels for outside and in the greenhouse, so there is still a ways to go. I had better eat more ice cream.

    Time to make more labels today.

    Right then, that’s thirty-one so far. My Bride thinks this will be enough for outside, but I had better pop over to the supermarket and get some more, just to be sure…oh, that’s right— I have already re-stocked. Silly me.

    Clay— Welcome to scoop ice cream anon, brother, I had a relative over in the states once with that name…not Clayton, rather Henri Clay as his first two names.

    Daniel- will do.

    Sjoerd, no wander you like ice cream so much, we only have chocolate chip and chocolate ice cream at Christmas, we have ordinary vanilla flavour for the rest of the year.
