Lots of rain

This is what the lower end of the plot looked like on 16 January. One of the beds was completely flooded. The wheelbarrow belongs to D and was put together from three defunct wheelbarrows. We're allowed to borrow it whenever we want.

A bath has appeared

Our greenhouse has gutters but no water butt. So it made sense to ask B (who has lots of bits and pieces on his plots) if he was aware of any going free. By 8 January a tin bath was sitting there next to our greenhouse. It's apparently very resistant to frost. Well, not quite what we had in mind but we are getting used to the idea. All we need to do now is to find a downpipe diverter and a cover to stop evaporation.
