Science summer school starts tommorow! Still a lotta last minute things to do. Pupil lists, lunchs, directions all done but you know trying to get 100 pupils from 6 schools to a location, to arrive a given time……

As for me I am looking forward to0 it all. I need to get my trusty sony camera sorted out with charged batteries and memory cards with space!

 In addition to developing the garden, I also tried my hand at growing mushrooms. I got the spores from Homebase. I planted them on the 12 May 2007. After 14 days the soil was interwoven with very thin threads called mycellae. I always wondered how mushroom got to be the juicy things that are eaten. from the pictures I can see that they emerge as small tubes, these tubes I think become wider and turn into the dome of the mushroom. We shall see.
