It's been wetter than I can remember for a long time, hence the no show on my blog. What can I tell you? We have filled the water butt in just two days, the ground is too wet to stand on and the girls have been 'holidaying' in the greenhouse to prevent trench foot!
However, with a break in the downpour today I hopped outdoors and pulled up the summer bedding from my barrel and two pots and replaced them with tulip and allium bulbs. I roughly pushed my fingers into the compost to make little beds for some iris bulbs too and then, as the first fat drops warned me of more rain, I planted the last of my tulips in double quick time. I'll be glad of those come the springtime.
A weather warning email has even sent to all council workers for tomorrow so I guess we have more rain to come! Roll on 2013 and maybe an actual summer! It seems a very long way off yet.
Sorry I've been away so long!
