14th June

Didn't realise it had been so long since last entry.   What's happened in that time?    Lettuces and F1 spinach have shot up and started being eaten (by me and the bugs).   Have been given strawberry plants and gooseberry by Pauline at the plot.  The best news is that Jan has moved in next door !   The plot next door was available and she got it.   So we're now sharing a shed and have big plans to renovate it.

potatoes are still shooting up, tadpoles are all gone (maurice took the last 4) so the birds now a have a luxury pond to bathe in. 

The Belfast sink is now planted up and ready for the competition.   Jana and I went to a plant fare and picked up some bargains so just waiting for them to blossom out a bit more to fill the sink.    Got some cosmos plants from the plant fare and they are planted in my flower garden although there aren't any flowers in it yet, just seeds and starter plants..... next year...

Raspberries plant is absolutely bursting with fruit some ripe and eaten and other just ripening.   Had a couple of strawberries as well from the plot next door which have grown onto my plot - absolutely delicious. 

Peas definately dead.  Cabbages and collies eaten by ?slugs?   They now have comfry around their base as apparently slugs don't like that.....

Parsnips planted (seeds) but not showing any signs of life yet......

It's very much maintenance now and sitting in the chair in the sun marvelling at my hard work
