The greenhouse has been tidied, the debris cleared out, and it’s seed sowing time.

And the Brussels are coming through. Soon to be planted out in the refurbed and top-soiled veg beds

But not before the second May bank holiday. At least that’s what the locals say, as late frosts can occur even then. The last two years have seen us plant out in about the second week and get away with it.
