Wednesday started off dull but soon cleared up to give a lovely sunny day. The temperature was extremely warm for April as this piece in the Daily Telegraph details.

We didn't quite manage the temperatures in Telegraph but our high was 21.1°C very respectable for early April. These 2 ladybirds on the plot were also making the most of the fine weather.

I cultivated 3 of our long beds on the plot. The soil is now very dry and really needs some rain. Our clayey soil is now starting to have dry concrete hard lumps in it which will only break down into a fine tilth once we get some rain.
