are nacked, so are the peas. Well not totaly. There are signs again.
Nothing to get excited about.
My daughter in law sowed some carrots for me in cardboard bog rolls which
are showing now so they will be going into the ground as soon as possible.

So, potatoes and carrots is the diet for the future until I can figure out
how I am going to tackle this mess.

Best wishes to all.

You've still time to sow french and riunner beans and peas. If the soil is still soggy, grow them in pots for a while.

I know it's not much consolation but maybe this is the year you could try all those interesting oriental veg that can't be sown until the days start to shorten again?
