Well the sun made an appearance today after what seems like months, so managed to get out into the patch.
There are now 4 raised beds and a big pile of horse manure in a hole right in the middle, (where the stick is) this will be the site of one plant, the first pumpkin will be called Pumpkina - the name was suggested by one of the followers as he didn't want a pumpkin named after him for some reason! Personally I think Steve is a good name for a pumpkin.

Coming through the horse manure are loads of green shoots which tell me that Spring is here:
The cloches will remain for a couple of weeks as my other neighbours are looking after a small dog that likes to run around. He's been very well behaved and although I am not a great dog lover, he is quite sweet:
What is great about him is that he likes to chase squirrels and squirrels like to eat my Tulips.
