Rain and more rain did call into garden centre and bought some seeds for allottment for next month , does that count as gardening ? Plus nice piece of cake with cup of coffee
Have at last done some gardening. Weeded the tomatoes in the GH, fed them, watered them, put out mouse traps. Deadheaded, weeded and tidied up in the flower garden, 2 barrows full.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Too hot and dry. We had a bit of rain on Tuesday morning so I spent 5 hours weeding a long, curving border and yesterday I cut the grass but nothing yet today.
Will pick a cabbage later and water the toms.
Need a good downpour but preferably without gales and hail tornadoes.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

Turned into a lovely and warm sunny afternoon , had a down pour last night , everything in the garden growing well except tomatoes , outdoor and those in greenhouse , infact not even that main green ones either , strange !
Wonder how everybody else is doing with there toms ?
hopeless year for tomatoes!! cold may and june, only just getting some now.
helped my dad nearly kill himself by getting out an old shrub - he thinks he's 21 not 81 - then went to a gardening job and had a red face after 2 much sun! didn't think it would be so hot and forgot my hat.
looking forward to a day off tomorrow, going to the garden centre woo hoo!!
