As it’s not too far away I can go during the week water the plants or simply enjoy the garden on a sunny day. My husband can work from home so that’s where we are at the moment. <br />Once we’ve sold the house we’re thinking of moving to Versailles into another flat.

There is seldom a time when there is nothing in the garden that we can eat!Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-2688583251268376782020-03-12T07:06:07.362+00:002020-03-12T07:06:07.362+00:00Hi Lea; I'm going to do my usual thing with po...Hi Lea; I'm going to do my usual thing with potatoes again - I'll grow a few of several varieties, in my big black plastic pots as usual.

I feel your pain, we have had some really wet and windy weather lately and I have done nothing to my veggie patch. <br />This year I will only plant cherry tomatoes as they grow very well in their sunny spot. Also we have put the house on the market, so I don’t know whether I will be able to enjoy the harvest.

I think it's particularly nice from a planning perspective, not having to live with last years bad decisions about where I planted things. In the end though, when I think of all the amazing food we've eaten 365 days a year, I'm happy with the compromiseSteve Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13518801234249449853noreply@blogger.com
