At last - The Rain Stops!!!

Well, wonders will never cease!  The sun actually came out and I got some much needed time down on my plot this weekend.

The rain and sun has not only encouraged the seeds to take, but for the weeds to take over in a very aggressive fashion!

As a result, I spent all my time weeding and clearing the plot ready for some more planting soon!

I am just waiting to be 100% sure that we are not getting anymore frost and then I hope to transplant some seedlings form home.

I lost a lot of my first lot in the greenhouse due to cold and frost. 

On reflection, I was too keen and too early, so this weekend I shall plant again in the propagator and have another go!

The good news is that I have peas, beetroot and some very strong looking shallots and onions!
