Visit to Stapeley then sowing the tomatoes, peppers etc. Moving the onions along starting to build some benching for the greenhouse.

The trauma of working through a beautiful day and the joys of sneaking off early to the plot to plant onions and brassicas
Down to the plot in the freezing rain and a progress report on the the seedlings.
Giant monster ants live in my compost bin? And it was a sunny day, too!
Stocking up on paraffin and more potatoes amongst other things.
Still transplanting onions, may have a few more than I need!
Still freezing so restocked the paraffin tank and bought some more seed potatoes.
Nostalgia and seed sowing - you'll see what I mean!
The amazing changing vegetables and electrical works. Plus Jerusalem artichokes arrive.
Merry Christmas to everyone
Planting Japanese onion sets, carrots and wonderful parsnip, back and forth with compost material.
Another new person and an unusual pumpkin problem - its too big to get out. Blanching sweetcorn prior to freezing.
Watering, weeding, sowing and fourth cut of comfrey for the year
Onion disaster on plot 29. Rust affecting the onions. Rotovating with the Merry Tiller
Actually too hot! The weather was more Spain than England
New potatoes, engineering works and feeding the plants.
Snatched a few hours on the plot and an hour in the potting shed.
What a difference a week makes!
Big Bertha the rotovator is poorly.
Visits to garden centres are nearly as dangerous as reading seed catalogs.
