Main highlight of the day was a fishing excursion with my youngest Son who's birthday it was. (Oh to be 34 years old again) 
Because I was fishing I had to don trousers for the first time for ages, rather than shorts. The upshot from this was that after fishing I spent an hour at the plot and could actually kneel on the paths at the plot while weeding!
I had forgotten the pleasure of hand weeding, on my knees in damp soil. 
I weeded a diagonal path which took me the full hour. I like to do a wee bit weeding each time I go and will tackle another digonal path next tme I am there.
Pictures below are of weeded path plus the last of the onion beds covered with hay until I decide which non-allium crop I will be putting in them. The fish will be turned into goujons for my dinner.
