April was dry here, and warm and sunny. I've mixed feelings. We had a new lawn laid, and it could have done with some rain. It's certainly got that in May. The grass has grown, and so have my broad beans, turnips and potatoes. The peas have not done as well, and the birds have virtually exterminated the cabbages and lettuces. Never mind. I planted some leeks today (a bit late?), and some courgettes too. Plenty of room for more, though.
