Digging clay

It's time to put out the sweetcorn.

The problem is that they are going into the new addition to the plot which was last seen under water. Also we're on London clay, so it's seriously tough going.

However I did manage to slog my way through it. So now we have a bed of Sweetcorn, interplanted with Cape Gooseberries.

Meanwhile the courgettes are looking really sorry for themselves after the bumper slug party that went on the other day.

Looks like we've completely lost three of the plants. We only have two spares sitting n the greenhouse. Ah well, after last year's crop I think we can do without for a bit.

But on the plus side, our first Strawberry of the season has started ripening.

 I think The Wife's Strawberry Empire is about to kick off. Hmm, must mean it's soon time for Wimbledon. Tennis anyone?
