Finally did what we always said we'd do once we'd both retired; we got up this morning and went straight down the allotment. We didn't actually get down there until nearly 8:30AM but to be fair it's the middle of May, not June/July, and the temperature was still in single figures. If we have a good summer and overnight lows don't drop below double figures we may set the alarm and come down somewhat earlier.
We mainly did watering, feeding (with a comfrey feed) and weeding, though we did also plant some mange-touts and some French beans.
Planted some mange-tout........
........and some French beans.
The carrots are doing OK this year; unlike last years efforts.
Onions are looking good at the moment..........
As are the blueberries.
Potatoes are showing themselves.
Going to have to mound them up on our next visit.
The grapevine is in full leaf now.
The seating/picnic area is looking very pleasant.
And just before we left we picked some asparagus, which we'll have tonight. Can't get any fresher than that.
