I am catching a plane to England today (from central France) in search of the sun and to recover from trench foot. We are just a bit fed up of carrying logs in for the last 6 months, drains that don't drain becuase the water table is so high and generally being cold or wearing 3 layers of clothes. We have had just maybe 5 days of T-shirt weather in the last 6 months and most of these were in Feb. Unable to plant out toms, peppers,courgettes etc etc and the cold frame is looking like the Amazon rain forrest..
I reckon that we are 4-6 weeks behind in the garden and the grass is so high but wet when it should have been cut and drying in the sun for the first hay crop.
Fingers crossed for some sun in Cambridge !
