Mornin George been fine but cold the later part of the week here. Frost has ruined by spuds so putting some more in potato sacks today. None of my peas germinated so going to put some main crop peas into greenhouse today, they'll be late but oh well. It's a beautiful day here today so fingers crossed last of frosts gone now.
