It all looks ok. now with the snow!

I havn't done anything for weeks an weeks and there are lots of jobs I have
not done, so I have to start somewhere when my condition is sorted out.

Could I just in spring dig and sow/plant and add my compost as I go?

Or should I dig in some compost, and wait a bit before sowing and planting?

In the past I have done the Autumn digging but this year no chance.

I wouldn't worry. I have dug in Spring. No discernable difference. I
think Autumn digging helps get rid of soil pests & the frost breaks up
clay but that's all. Just a bit harder work in the Spring.
