Today’s weather was looking a little uncertain, according to the forecast, but we woke to sun and some cloud. So after ringing I pootled off to the allotment for a couple of hours. First job to do was to pick anything that was ready. So I managed to pick some Baby Sweetcorn, round Courgettes, loads of Purple Beans (these are doing fantastically and we had some for dinner), more Onions and Carrots, and of course some rouge Potatoes. Rouge Potatoes seem to pop up everywhere. You think you’ve cleared them all, but no, there’s always some left. Then after all that picking it was the obligatory weeding and strimming. Got loads done so a good morning. Just as I was getting in the car the heavens opened, so I managed to time it just right.
