The day after I plant my beans out and we have gale force winds and driving rain … still, at least everything else is getting a good watering I guess.

they're looking a bit ragged but i'm hoping i can encourage them not to give up with a few more bits of well placed string!

I have to confess that here on the border of Yorkshire/Derbyshire we were in badly need of a good old down pour although we had nearly a full week of gale force winds before we got the wonder rain this morning and I'm very happy to write it's raining still! Hel.xxx.

I ruined my beans... they were getting attacked by slugs indoors so i put them out and they were sat on by the chickens (who thought the barrells were a lovely dusting place) so i built a fence around them and lo and behold frost!!!! But ah ha i knew this would happen so I have some more which will be ready to plant out next week! Clever me!! or not!!
