What a change


Sunday saw a complete change in the weather. The drabness disappeared to be replaced by sunshine almost all day long. Although the temperature only managed 11°C it felt mild in the afternoon sunshine.
Down on the plot it’s amazing how the recent rain has transformed our soil. It’s not that we've had any great amount of rain but after being too dry to dig the soil is now such that it sticks to boots whilst digging.
At least having grass paths around our beds means that digging can be done without standing on the soil too much which is a great help now that the soil is a bit claggy. Much more rain and it will be too wet to turn over and digging will have to wait for the soil to dry out a little.
