We had some rain early this morning, and it looks like possibly a bit more in the next hour or so. Not as much as is needed, but at least the grounds damp.

Lardman's rain front looked very promising as it headed northwards, but it fizzled away as it reached Sheffield and only managed to deliver a paltry 0.2mm in the end!  :nowink:
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

We have had some proper steady rain overnight and on and off today.  There are even puddles in the road.

Usually I would be scowling at the clouds if I had a day off and then got stopped from going to the plot, but its fine by me today  :)

Two lots of very welcome rain here too.... The weeds should soon get growing - always a good sign ;)

Raining on and off most of the day, so the cat is sulking (like me!)
The garden needed the rain though.

Looked like rain most of the day....but none arrived.

A cold / chill wind so the hedge-cutting planned for today was put on hold.

Still overcast and drizzly but at least that kept the temperature above 10, so didn't need to do the greenhouse hokey-cokey last night and this morning  :)

Cat still sulking, though  ::)

Same here but no drizzle...just grey & chilly winds.

Tender plants remained out overnight with exception of tomato plants, cubits and cumbers - they remain in 24/7

Still not tackled the hedges - fortunately other things to attend to so not feeling guilty about the delay.  :mellow:

We've had no decent rain for about three weeks and had a really drying wind from the East so watering like mad!
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
