Bit of a Washout

What a wet and windy weekend!  Braved the elements today to go and check both plots.  Localised flooding, trees down and generally very stormy today and felt a bit apprehensive approaching plot 119 as the first few plots we walked past were underwater.  Luckily our plot is on slightly higher ground and apart from a broken pane of greenhouse glass, everything was looking intact.





All looking good in the greenhouse though, not lost anything and the aubergines and tomatoes are looking good.  Got some more sweet peppers showing themselves too now.  And the spare broad beans I planted are going to be transplanted out when and if the rain ever stops!


 


Went up to plot 69 after, turnips are all surviving, no sign of being waterlogged there, however it is at the top of a hill so not worried about that site so much.  Nothing much changed up there since last Sunday, just all holding its own really.  Home then to warm up with soup and a coffee, really chilly as well as wet.  Where has Spring gone???
