Time to get planting.......

It's a balmy, blowy 15C today. The soil should be warming up well. I feel a sudden sense of urgency as the saps rising and green shoots are all around. And if I'm honest I've looked at other people's blogs such as Mark's vegetable garden http://marksvegplot.blogspot.com/ and they are getting on.. I have to remind myself that he is further south and probably two weeks ahead of us. (4 weeks ahead of places such as Orkney where we used to live)

I always tend to plant too early and then things bolt - onions and chard spring to mind.. Ours is a shorter growing season than south

Gardens Illustrated magazine arrived today. Was it Oscar Wilde who said "I can resist everything except temptation."?  Time for a good read and a cup of tea.......
