    Very mild and sunny with a gentle breeze, and forecast to get to 15C this afternoon. Sadly I am working so no more than a quick turn around the garden on my tea break. Day off tomorrow and guess what?I'll probably get something done outside in the morning but it won't be as nice as it is today.

    Strawberries preparing

    The bed is 6m x 1/2m two strips. Bit expensive and labour intensive with straw. Vine weevil I did not know about, I'll look that up. I will dig out the older plants and let the new suckers take over.
