It's an absolutely gorgeous day out there today, I even took my jumper off, getting down to just my bra, then next door but one man came out and I had to duck down and quickly put jumper back on.
I'm nearly through getting bean sticks dismantled. It takes an age to put them up, ensuring they're strong enough to withstand any wind the weather might chuck at us, but it seems much longer taking them down. It might be because I insist on undoing knots in order to save the twine for next year.

It may have been sunshiny but I kept my clothes on!
Planted turmeric tubers and Free Spring onions which I've been bringing on in a jar of water.
Pulled up an old courgette in a pot and found 1.5 kilos of potatoes in the bottom. I'd forgotten that I'd planted them. 
Dug up some Elephant garlic. I'll put some in the post to you SC, when they've dried off.

Wandered around the garden, picking up pots that had been blown over, a wire fence had blown down but no serious damage.
Played in the GH for a while, cutting off dead leaves on tomatoes and adding to the Hotbin, nothing worthwhile really!

The ground is very wet and heavy so I concentrated on cutting down brambles, for a change.

Removed some GH toms that have finished, dismantled and cleaned the self-watering system I use for my cucumbers.
