Well, almost

   The good start made last week did not last that long. Wind, rain and then days of wind and drizzle was enough to discourage one from doing anything very much outside. Tomato seeds sown in seed trays (all gathered last year) varieties Crimee Noire, Jens Orange, Gardeners Delight, Andine Cornue, Potiron Ecarlate.
Tomato seed on the window ledge
   Also sown Golden Acre and Precoce de Louviers cabbage in modules really with fingers crossed as I do not have that much success with brassicas sown from seed. Moss curled parsley sown in pots last years surviving plants now starting to struggle.
   I did cut some daffodil's and put them up in a vase on the mantle piece. My wife always enjoyed the first daffodil's of the  year.

Left Great Lakes lettuce Right Bedfordshire Championship onions
   The chick is surviving and Mrs. Buffy is proving to be a module mum. Sheep are being sheep and the chickens continue to lay well. Once more they are being annoying in the garden scratching at any disturbed soil. My nice beds end up virtually flat!
   Here is hoping for some better weather to enable me to get on more.
