Had 2 hours at the plot while eldest was at gymnastics. Decided to plant out my Brussel sprouts. Planted 12 out today and have more to go if needed.
Also using old inner tents I made some temporary protection. Will need proper netting as they grow but this should do for beginning.
Decided to head back down for a few hours in the evening for a fire and a bit more of a tidy. Here are a few pics. I also planted another set of French beans so Will hopefully have a succession this year.

I do have to admit that i have been a little unloving towards my allotment recently. So much that I got a comment of a few people... My fault. So today I started a bit of a tidy. Trying to make it a bit better.
We were down for over 4 hours today and there is a lot more to do tomorrow as well. However I will get back on top of it and one day hopefully it Will look prestine.
As well as the tidying I planted out around 15 French bean plants i started at home and I also put 4 of my courgette plants out. 3 more to do tomorrow. Dug up some more new potatoes for lunch tomorrow and thankfully the weather stayed mainly dry. Will get some photos in a few days when it is tidy.
I know I shouldn't complain about the dry weather we have had and I have enjoyed the sun but a little rain would be good...
Popped down for a quick watering today and things are looking good. Strawberries are coming on well and will hopefully have the first ripe fruits soon. French beams i planted a few weeks ago have germinated and should be good. Time to plant another row.
Back at home the sprouts and broccoli i potted up are doing well and my second lot of courgettes have worked which is nice. I have 7 plants.
Will try and get down longer tomorrow as away this weekend. One or two pictures as well.
