Moon phase: Week 4 (waning)
Here in Cambridgeshire, at any rate! The weather is fine and sunny, and the allotment calls. On Monday I did a huge batch of digging (carefully, so as not to injure my back, which is recovering well) - well, huge for someone who's 5' 2" and not exactly athletic! OK, only half a veg bed, each of which is about 1.5m x 3m (yes, I know, I freely mix metric and Imperial measurements!). Today I did the other half, albeit taking it more slowly, and planted it up with garlic and shallots, leaving space for leeks and onions to be sown later.
