Got down to the allotment today and got some work done. I rotovated more of the area in front of the apple trees and planted out four more cauliflower plants under a second cloche. I need to bring more of the correx sheets up to the house and make holes in them with the soldering iron so that I can fasten them together in pairs with zip ties to make more cloches.

I also planted some broad bean seeds, which I hope will be more successful than last year's...

I started clearing the bed where I grew carrots this year and found a last couple of them lurking in the weeds, so those have gone into Rob's lunch box for tomorrow. Did I mention that the Experimental Greenhouse Carrots have germinated nicely? So far so good!

I also took the opportunity to take a few more practice shots with the new camera :-

Fallen damsons - I liked the contrast of the glaucous blue of the fruit with the yellow leaves.

Nasturtium, scoffing boldly at the frost which has laid most of its fellows low.
