Well theres no sign of rain down here and while last week my garden was
lush and green today its parched desert .......havent had any rain for at
least 5 weeks
Another year like the last 3 with these scorching weeks on dry sandy soil
and i will give up and sell up
Its too heartbreaking for words to see the way the climate has changed my
garden for the worst despite always piling on lashings of compost
