Well, the allotment shop opened this weekend and I bought our first and second early potatoes (7 Foremost, 7 Lady Balfour) then for joining the allotment association as a member we receieved some Amorosa potatoes as well. We also bought some Yellow Moon shallots to put in next weekend. We were going to buy some borlotti beans as we fancy trying them this year but they didn't have any (but then later in the morning Andrea rang and told us she had found some loose and would save them for next weekend so I must remember to pick them up on Saturday !
On Sunday Henry and I popped down to the allotment in the afternoon and were pleased to find that the garlic had all started to come through, and the rhubarb too. I did some pruning (gooseberries, redcurrant bush and the raspberries as well). We dug over the greenhouse and got the inside ready for when the weather gets a touch warmer and we can start the tomatoes and chillies off :-)
