With 50 shrubs to plant I’ve been planning new borders to put them all in. Today we dug another giant border (and when she says WE, she means Mr Fogg dug as she watched) and planted 10 more today. Last weekend I planted 14 as well so only 26 more to go. It’s looking good though!

The veg plot is starting to take shape too. This year we have early and main crop potatoes, carrots, peas, broccoli, garlic and beetroot. I’ve still to plant more carrots, beetroot and then french beans, Romanesque and lettuce. I did want to try strawberries but getting the plants is the problem at the moment.
