From cool to warm to hot

Haven't blogged for a bit - but this was due to the lack of action, and a few busy weekends.

First part of this month was dry and cool - actually very cool (-2 degrees below ave.) with a return of snow to Scotland and some frosty nights.

However, since 18th May it has suddenly got warmer and the chances are things will get hot to very hot in the next coming days.

What I have been up to:

• Replanted some beans and squashes - rotted off in pots due to cold and freezing nights
  
• Planted more of the Nasturtium hanging bags
• Sown and planted some flowers
• Planted out the cabbages, cauliflowers, early courgettes and sweetcorn (under bottle cloches)
• Done loads of watering - have had no significant rain this month

It must be noted that we have had very little rain - April was in th top 50 driest months - I am pretty sure that May will come in the top 20.

Stats Check: 2007 = April was 4th driest on record then May = 10th Wettest & June = 2nd Wettest - amazing!!! Will 2010 go the same way?

Will follow with more photos (need to charge battery)!
