Don't knock it Jennie, lol. My lottie's so waterlogged I'm thinking of planting rice!!!!! Even my sweetcorn's learning to swim

One of the chap's on the lottie said his potato's have all gone to mush Looks like the farmers are in the same boat & we'll all be paying over the odds for any fruit & veg we buy at the supermarket.I bet they'll not bring the prices back down again once we all get back to normal!

And to top it all, last night we had a gale. First we knew was the screech of the wind. We had just finished putting up a marquee type thing for a big family garden party on Saturday. Smashed beyond repair and no way can we get another and put it up in time.
Garden did not do too badly, spent this morning cutting down broken stuff and re-supporting others.

Oh no - hope your party isnt ruined?? Go ahead anyway, enjoy regardless.

Lots of rain here too I am lucky though soil drains well. Dig 18" down and you hit sandy gravel trouble is in dry weather it is not to easy to keep ground moist.
