A bit of digging, and I brought the brassica seed home to sort out an early planting. Someone suggested starting couve tronchuda early, indoors, for an early autumn crop, and I'll be putting several other brassicas in at this rate!

Tried to soak my experiment growing veg in 12 straw bales.......and the allotment water was turned off.
Never happened before. When your allotment water is turned off, when is it usually turned on again?

Been tidying up..'digging out' all pots and bits of rubbish from hedge bottom that wind has been blowing there over winter.
Shifting stored slabs on better location out of way.
Digging and turning land over for new squash bed ;D ;D
Digging row of JA's out and bindweed..never ending job ::)
That's action so far..more to do once coffee had 'dried' out and tummy cannot take it anymore. ;D
another shift is waiting while weather is good ;D

Went to the plotment to move spread the compost, found three more broken panes of glass :-[ :-[ :-[ on the greenhouse.
Started checking through my alpine seed pots and managed to fall over and bash my head on a barrel.
now got a nice bump and a bruise on my leg. Sunlovers came to help!
Anyway going back this afternoon to get bit more done or fall over again! that gooseberry wine we started last night must be strong stuff. ;D ;D ;D

Our water will be back on again early next month, as long as we get reasonably seasonal weather.
