You have done a fair bit of work there. The soil looks good.

It's not bad at all to be fair.  I spoke to the lady who planted tatties in it last year and apparently it was like concrete then !

The weeds are taking long to remove than I'd originally envisaged, but it's coming on.  Trouble is, apparently it floods in winter, so not at all sure when I'm going to get the manure on ! 

All good fun though.

;D
