Am a bit stuck till the wet recedes. This time of year I do envy all you people with lighter soil. My paths are sodden and the lower ones have standing water in them...Will go back to playing with seeds.

i feel your pain before i moved to clacton i had a plot in chingford it was on a steep hill all clay and i was at the bottom very wet all the water came down the hill

I have very well draining soil.  Though things at the moment are a bit soggy and slippery.  Please remember that the downside of well drained soil is all the watering that needs to be done in the summer.  So its swings and roundabouts.

I am on a slope so expect the bottom to be very wet indeed.  But we have not been suffering as much as those up north. 

Been very mild, I still have some geraniums in pots by the doorstep in flower. 

I still have some sprouts to be picked.
