Dull, grey and yes rain

    The weather continues to be wet. Little done again this week. Moved a few barrows of stones to complete the initial laying of the path at the bottom of the bulb bank but that is it! 

At least one layer of stones along the lenght

   I would like to say the weather is getting better but the weather forecast for next week has one day without rain. Hopefully the forecasted rain will be little and maybe just maybe I can get out and get on. Soon be time to plant onions and shallots and the first sowing of carrots and parsnips. Still need to prepare some ground and I will probably sow seeds under clouches to try to protect them a little from the rain. 

   The river is very high and I guess will remain so. Chickens are being chickens and nothing  unusual  going on with them. The bulb bank is now showing a lot of sprouting bulbs so the promise of a really good display is on the cards. Other narcissi are in flower with many more soon to open up. Ought to be picking a bunch in the next few days.

   Here is hoping for some drier weather!
