  • Bloody lovely here today. A bit dicey around 9am but settled into raging sunshine with a medium to stiff breeze.

    In 15 Minutes I need to set out to pick up the small boy. Hills and breezes against me. Doubt we’ll need many pedal strokes to get home though.

    Summer baby me. I love a bit of sun.

    The allotment is going absolutely berserk with the mix of rain and sun. Have to say the polytunnels were at 46 degrees though. Even for tomatoes that is a bit toasty (and sweaty as hell watering them).

    We had water supply issues, and my manual trips carrying buckets weren’t enough to fend off the sun. Potatoes came out ok, tomatoes hanging in there as are most hardy herbs, but beans, cavalo Nero, beets, garlic, onions, and a mess of seedlings all didn’t make it. Like a personalised intro to climate change crop failure.
