Had a beautiful sunny morning, though a bit windy. In less than a blink of an eye, hailstones, now sunny again.

Only bought from Dobies.

Sludge. Had intended to suggest we swop seed every so often. But being into my 87th year, I can sometimes when the wind is in the wrong direction hear Old Nick sharpening a scythe .

Sludge. Maybe we should now keep our own stock, for the future.

Wonder if we will have a rush for allotments this year.

Advice is keep your distance. Hate to be just married.

Left home at 0715 for the plot. Then decided to drop into my local supermarket for my bread, they only bake three cheese boule a day.] arrived at 0730. Like a mad house inside. Everyone rushing around like lemmings. The world has gone mad.

Got my"ANYA" spuds in this morning.

Lets hope the virus has come and gone by crop picking season. Otherwise we might need the Army to patrol our allotments.

Wife of the last one said that I'd absolutely made her husbands day with the phone call.

Raining again.........

Our letting committee person. was left standing. The person so keen to have an allotment, didn't show up.

Mine are just showing through.
