Ist time at plot in 2023! Happy New Year everyone. 
Had a bit of a natter with a couple of plot holders who had also been drawn out by the sunshine. 
It was bright today but frosty so decided to do a bit of weeding. The diagonal paths looked the worst so I planned to weed one path, then call it a day. I finished up weeding two paths eventually.
I also cleared up some of the dead foliage on the parsnips and beetroot.
I like to kneel when i hand weed (easier on the back) and I had a plastic bag full of semi rotted grass cuttings which when folded made a comfortable kneeling platform with the sun on my back
I came away with some leeks and beetroot which were surprisingly firm. Leek & potato soup tomorrow!
