The most interesting fact as that 10000 or any number of steps is an arbitrary number. The important thing is to move every hour-ours are programmed for 250 steps from 8am-7pm. My daily target for myself is 11000 steps but I have been lucky if I have managed 5-6 thousand daily over this hot weather. Great results from your raised bed-I love carrots raw when they are so fresh.CatrionaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-40200780266511528582022-07-25T09:39:22.648+01:002022-07-25T09:39:22.648+01:00Brilliant gardener!

Last year it got bashed about quite a bit because the Lathe Palace builders put their skip beside it (where the RB is now) and all the fruit was dislodged. It is cooler this morning - I hope things are not too hot for you!
