                    Watering, weeding, dead heading and trimming grass edges. Also dug up and thinned out and replanted some species tulips, hopefully they will flower next year. Planted out sweetcorn and sunflowers.

                        Spent most of the day inside sorting/chucking out junk that has strted to accumulate in cupboards. ...but had a walk up to the lotty with the dogs for a check on it...

                        Onions are looking huge! Really pleased with my first season with a lotty....
