Allotments 4 All

Well it did get bright for a while yesterday but I lost most of it chasing around for MIL at the Drs and Pharmacy... did get out onto lotties though for an hour or so.... normal service of heavy rain has resumed this morning !

Dry but bitterly cold here, should give the bugs and earywigs a bit of a shock. Snow on Dartmoor and in Wiltshire. Too close for comfort.

Hi Ya, Started raining early hours and gave us over 1/2". A lot in one go for our area. I feel sorry for those in Lincolnshire etc. It must be a nightmare for  them.

Still raining... do you know any good boat builders?

Have a word with Noah

I think he's too busy for my commission....

Took OH best part of three hours to get home last night as flooding had closed the A38N at Burton... drier this morning but I have to get MIL to York for a Crem at 1pm (not hers!) so should get to see some flooding en route, but not have to drive through it. Raining here ATM but it doesn't really mean it...

It's actually a nice day here on the capital - The Sun is up and I am off to rebuild compost heaps..

Day off and it's raining yet again.....

Snap....

Sods law....back at work today and the sun is shining!!!!!

Warm and sunny. Compost heaps sorted, picked loads of stuff for soup. Strimmed all my paths and started sorting the shed but got hungry so came home for breakfast and then strimmed the orchard. Filthy dirty now covered in damp grass cuttings and rotten apple bits. S'pose I had better have a brush down before she comes home.

Warm? Hardly but sunny... and dry so got some stuff done.

Now this is cold, even the postman has left his shorts at home and I spotted a brass monkey looking for a welder. The type of November frost I remember from 60 years ago when we had four regular seasons.

Not to bad here.. a touch of frost this morning but it has stayed dry.

Damp, but with some bright periods. Last weekend they were promising a week of rain, and it has been the driest week for ages. No doubt the weekend will be dreadful!

The start of my well earned 5days off and it's raining in soggy Notts

and Derby....

Frosty start but dry and bright... got down the lottie, a lot of standing water so contented self with a bit of harvesting and cutting back overgrown stuff...

Another frosty start, but brilliant blue sky that goes with it... and no rain (other forms of precipitation are available) so might get out later once the frost has melted.
