This is my new hod. I scored this at the yearly tractor show flea market.

Suet624 Can you explain what this is? 9mo
quirkyreader @Suet624 This is a hod. It‘s used to transport vegetables after they are picked. The veggies can also be washed in the hod before being taken inside. Since this is a vintage piece I won‘t be washing things in it. And it does have some heft to it. 9mo

I‘m still working on the translation of this. Does anyone have any clue. I think part of it says good luck.

Purpleness My German is super rusty, and I always have trouble with the old fashioned print, but what I can get is “…I have forgotten/…/but I wish from my heart/ truly, truly lots of luck!” Sorry, I really can‘t get the second line at all. If someone else gives you a different translation, go with theirs; it‘s been years since I took German. 9mo

I just had biopsies this morning, so it is a massive rest day. I‘ll be finishing up my botany book and revising my planting list. This year the drought is changing everything. So it will be natives and drought tolerant plants.
