It's raining!!




And pouring! I have just popped down for an hours weeding in the rain - I am trying really hard to do little and often to try and keep on top of things this year - and so far it's not looking too bad. Planted out on the allotment we have potatoes, onions, garlic, tomatoes, mange-tout, sweet peas, beetroot, spinach, lettuce, carrots, parsnips (2 so far!!!!), purple sprouting brocolli, calabrese, cauliflower, kale, brussel sprouts, turnips - wow! quite a list! and still courgettes, squash, pumpkins, runner beans, french beans, peas and sweetcorn waiting to go in.

One job I must do soon is to get the fruit netted - we have loads of blueberries, blackcurrants, goosesberries etc and I don't want to share with the birds!!
