When i woke up this morning it was lovely blue sky and sunshine so i thought i would go make a start on one of the 2 beds still to be dug on the allotment!. little did i realise how cold it was and that most of my plot was still frozen!. so instead, i took some photos, and put some compost in a pot to bring home to warm up, so i can trial an early sowing of tomatoes....am going to plant 4 seeds from the toms i harvested in the autumn, and see if i can get them to fruit earlier than they did last season.
todays view of the allotment....
i have also decided to enter a seed swap on the grapevine this year. i have to grow enough kidney beans and cooking toms to save the seed and share out with 15 other people!!. goodness knows if this was a wise idea or not, but i like the idea of swapping seeds with people and hopefully collecting seeds from plants not commonly avaliable in the mainstream garden centers.

Brave lady Rachel, facing the allotment and swapping seeds! Good luck with the early sowing, DWG and I will be most interested in hearing how this venture fares.
