All four of our water butts are empty, I think yes a barbeque summer is quite likely. Picking peas carrots, turnips, broad beans, chard, strawberries, raspberries, cherries, wet garlic, lettuce, outdoor cuc's forming, etc
At this rate with temperatures climbing it will be a race to pick the cane fruit before they cook on the vine! Grapes on the vine are the size of peas now, the earliest tomatoes, jostaberries and blackcurrants are beginning to ripen. Melons and peppers, kiwi and aubergines are flowering, my sprouts are about three ft high, so should be ready early, perhaps I should plant some more if I want some at christmas. One bonus is after the ducks predation and all this sunshine slugs and snails are rare now, hooray!
