Work + Weather = No Allotment!!

Well not only have I been absent from my blog this week but I have also been absent form the allotment.

I guess we all have times when things take over and extra work hours really didn't help and then just when I thought I might get chance to get something done on Friday the weather changed.

The weather stayed beautiful up until Thursday when temperatures dipped and the rain moved in...and then it just didn't really want to go away again.

We did get some rain Wednesday night...but lets face it who really cares when you're in bed!!

Of course typically for a bank holiday weekend the weather has stayed miserable so I have spent most of my time indoors catching up with my books and programmes.

It is giving a dryer day tomorrow so I may get something done and even now it's not freezing or pouring out so i think I will be able to get down even if just for an hour...I have so many weeds it's rather depressing!!

Well I guess I should stop whinging about things and get my butt into gear...maybe tomorrow there will be something to report about the plot...oh I did manage to get my garden planted up with summer bedding plants...mind you I froze whilst I did it!!

Hope you're having better weather than I am.

    1. I can handle the cold..and even a little rain...but when it's torrential even I have to admit defeat.

  2. Our weather here over the weekend was awful. We had cold temperatures and lots of rain. I got spoiled with all those really nice days we had for a while.

  4. Hope you managed to get some time at the allotment. It often seems that the weather is conspiring against us, just when we find time to be outdoors, the heavens open. I don't think your weeds can be worse than mine, the weeds are knee high on some parts of my plot.

    1. I think we all have a few weeds like that Jo....why do the weeds always grow so much better than the crops...they don't seem to mind growing in the same place year after year!!

  5. It was better until today when it started coming down in bucket loads!

    Hopefully the weather will clear up so you can get back out to your plot :)
