My OH has been busy today putting on the fence wire to keep out the chickens and rabbits that seem to appear from time to time. He paid £50 plus vat per roll is this about the average price do you think. Next job which is planned for tomorrow are making the doors for our pollytunnel. So far I have young cabbage plants, lettuce, cucumbers and squash growing in the tunnel. My tomatoe plants are still in the house as we have had quite a bit of wind during the past week. I hope to plant them on and into the tunnel in the next few days. Potatoes are in the ground and the ones i have in tubs are doing very well, should have some salad ones ready in June. Still no sign of peas yet but red onions are coming on. Still loads to plant and needless to say I can see weeds coming faster than I would like. How are the rest of you doing in the garden. Its all go

It is all go, the ground temperature has risen dramatically over the last two weeks here in Glasgow southside so everything going into the ground with covers on standby in case of late frost. Spuds planted two weeks ago are peeping through, rhubarb is best I have had for years and onions and garlic planted in October are looking great. Tomatoes, chillies and sweetcorn in new greenhouse. Gonna try again for carrots which I have failed miserably to grow so far.

It is all go- but too much go! My potatoes are beginning to show some leaves popping through, must plant my last ones as well. Rhubard is doing fantastic as are the blackcurrant bushes. Cabbages, curly kale, broccoli are waiting to go out into the veg garden. Carrots are sown and sprouting in a couple of big tubs.

The weeds are growing so fast, the fences all need painted, the kitchen tiles need chipped off before the new kitchen arrives. The goats have their first show this saturday, and their next one the weekend after (from the friday to sunday), so they need their feet trimmed, baths, etc etc. Plus the caravan needs sorting out, and got ready for the year! Eeeeek
