Harvest baby lettuce, salad leaves, spinach, leek, strawberries and a couple of pods of peas - done

Also rigged up yet another cat barrier after lemon peel failed to stop the digging. I'm told clear plastic bottles of water laid on the soil deters cats so I am trying that next. Started carrying extra water to the allotment as I am going through the stored water frighteningly quickly and there is no rain on the horizon. Removed most of the bolted overwintered spinach and made soup out of the edible bits.
