A carrot was dangled this week, with three days of beautiful sunny days.......but at the wrong end of the week! By the time Thursday and Friday made an appearance, it was more horizontal rain and everything damp and miserable.
It's not making a very exciting blog, this weather and not very exciting gardening either. It's not fun planting outside with rain running off your anorak and the end of your nose. So, we retreated into our polytunnel to finish the tomato planting in the Growbags, give them a good water and generally tidied up. We rescued a few more sunflowers and planted out some nasturiums in some planters to add some colour to the garden - it is very green at the moment! There's not much you can do with weather like this - next week I'm bringing my waterproof trousers and probably a snorkel!
So to make everybody feel happy and get that Friday feeling, I'm posting some photos taken a couple of weeks ago, when the sun shone and everybody smiled and we were getting warm in the polytunnel planting our tomatoes.............and here I will leave you until next week.
