Plant labels
I use pencil, then at the end of season I collect all the labels. The ones that didn't break from the light get washed (using sponge and soap), then I use eraser to clean whatever written.

Got to Allotments yesterday, but the rain followed me, it was intermittent but became too persistent to continue. Only managed to dig parsnips, pick a few sprouts and some Kale. The winter salad in the greenhouse is still producing well, desperate to get on but too wet for a while yet.

I’d be surprised if Beth Chatto’s gardeners use slug pellets or insecticides . Birds tend to be vocal here in the morning and out looking for worms mainly early morning and at dusk. Sound for me also includes wind through the trees and swishing through dried grasses in winter.
