Planted out the marrows and courgettes. Still a fair few squashes and pumpkin plants to go out still but weeding the beds is taking a while...

Planted out the rest of the borlotti beans and weeded.

At home I sowed some more coriander and oriental lettuces.

Planted out the runner, broad,borlotti,trail of tears(thanks Mr G) ying yang, & the yellow French beans, oh & some spinach seedlings I’d been given. Weeded the  parsnips.  Watered them all of course then went back this evening & watered them all again plus the potatoes ,parsnips, peas & spring onions.

Bit more weeding ahead of planting out the last squash and pumpkins. Subsoil is starting to dry out now though, going to have to do a monster watering session tomorrow.

Yesterday I had an assistant with me for the morning at the plot, my daughters partner who came for gardening lessons. All socially distant of course, good idea these 5ft wide beds, I knew I had them for a reason. Yes I know 5ft isn’t 2 meters, we were on opposite sides & a bit apart.  :D We planted the sweetcorn,weeded the whole of that bed, weeded & swoed tge pea & bean bed, resowed peas & mangetout into the spaces, put posts & strings up for said peas, sowed 2 more rows of parsnips & carrots, watered planting’s & sowings, swept up, saw to chickens. Then I came home & after lunch sowed a load more brassicas before going back to the plot to ‘do’ tge chickens & water the strawberries &tomatoes.

Did a bit of weeding in the garden, intending to go to the allotment this afternoon - but it turned horribly cold and windy so didn't get there! I don't suppose the newly planted French beans will have like liked the last few days at all  :(

Weeded the Mother in Law's garden yesterday afternoon. In the evening I planted out courgettes and put some chicken wire over the beds to stop the cats. I've taken a real dislike to cats recently.

OH  rotovated bit more of brassica bed but ran out of petrol  ;)
Weeded  half of onions and shallots then gave up as soil better since rain but still very hard :(
Covered patch of weeds in middle with cardboard.
Needs covering with rabbit manure when I can get some.
