"I can remember a game of cricket being snowed off at Buxton on June the first."
Ms Exlibris  That may be the same year that I visited Beamish Museum at the end of May in the snow
Mr Melodeon  1976 I would suggest — followed by a heatwave.  I had that experience too that year.
Woolerwoman  So do I, I was there!! Yes, Mr Melodeon. 1976! Owzatt!

Feel free to share.
There was a frog singing in the pond yesterday so there's hope.
Got 8xhenmanure and seed compost from Armstrong Allotment Shop, where I bumped into DistrictNurse.  I also bumped into last week as she was about to embark on a bike ride with Ernextdoor.  Don't see someone for years then twice in a week.
Planted parsnip, radish and lettuce in the refurbished bed and marrows in pots on the front windowsill. Messed about with houseplants moving orchids around as there's only room for two on the bathroom shelf.
Today's task is to remove the redundant telly from the back kitchen windowsill so there's room for the two orchids currently on Ferretfingers' windowsill where they at risk of being swept off by the curtains.
By the way - anybody want a telly?

This year so far only ffa, radish and spring onion have been planted out.   

We have no seed compost so, as yet, no other seeds have been planted either indoors or out.   
Lots have been bought though…
