What's the earliest you get down to the lotty? I bet, during the summer some of you will be up at the crack of dawn....mind you, it's dawn here now....and we're off up the lotty.

Bet Munty's already been.

Last year I did 5.30-10am during the summer as it was too hot to continue much beyond 10am. Hard to imagine that now isn't it! :roll: the plot sees me twice a week for harvesting and deliveries at the moment :oops:

Still waiting for mine to be marked out, won't push Wilf though as it's horrible down that road at the mo and he's a lovely elderly gentleman. :)

Once last summer got to the plot for 4.45am thinking I'd have at least an hour with maximum water pressure, but no, 5am on the nose, dedicated-digger-dennis who I share a tap with was there to water too!  

By 5.15am there were lottie folks all over the place and zip all water pressure left.
