More seeds in...
After dashing up to the plot last night in fear of overnight frost, I sowed another row each of Rocket, Radish, Spring Onions and Beetroot. Thinned out, weeded, watered and also took my beloved Canon with 50mm lens for a walk about the allotments. Have a look here for the shots. It was so peaceful, sunny and warm. Just lovely. Everything is growing nicely. Will soon take the plants up from home which are coming along in my greenhouse.

Spinach....
Sieved and sowed another box. Spinach. Lovely in omelettes and soup.
The radishes and rocket have germinated AND a potato... Just the one!
David did a few repair jobs with Jack helping.
Our neighbors very kindly gave us some parsnips and leeks too. Thank you!

Sowing outdoors
Three and a half hours today... Lovely and sunny. A few people there today. I sowed the following in one box. One row of each.
Rocket
Lettuce
Spring onion (sentry)
Beetroot (chioggia)
Radish (scarlet globe)
Then I filled another bed with peas (douce Provence ). I covered these with netting

A quick hour....
Jack came with me, just for an hour. Sieved some soil, bit of weeding and three barrows of leaf mold. The raspberries have also survived their move!
Good news too... My broccoli and basil seeds have germinated at home.
