Good grief.. the amount of watering I'm having to do


I've just rigged up the water pump to the well via two electrical
extension leads joined end to end and two hosepipes joined end to end.
The water butt is nearly empty, so I'm topping that up at the moment.
After that the vegetable garden will get a good soaking.

Its a scorcher here today in Normandy. I don't want the onions to dry
out too much or they will tend to run to seed. Only light rain forecast
in a few days time but I'll believe it when I see it.
