What happened to springtime?

So just a few days ago it was brilliant sunshine, pushing 40C in the greenhouse and everything looked wonderful on the plot.

And now...

It's dreadfully dreary, damp and dismal, with a definite dreich drizzle.

But there have been some changes though. The spuds I planted have decided to emerge.

Also in the French Dwarf bed there is a single bean looking all forlorn in there.
(It also looks like the slugs have had a go at it as well).

The turnips are showing the lines well too.

But there are some flowers which are promising fruit later. Firstly there are the Blueberries...

And to keep The Wife happy, the strawberries are starting to flower.

Now if only we could get back to those sunny days, then it would be worthwhile spending a longer time down the plot. But we beat a hasty retreat to a nice hot cup of tea.
