Last day of August and, according to the Met office, summer is over. Their summer is June, July and August. Some parts of the country have had the wettest August since 1992 and the sunshine hours have been the lowest on record. It must be one of the only summers that we haven't had to water anything in the garden or on the plot. All this and we are advised to start growing drought tolerant plants! I hope that no-one has restyled their gardens this year with this advice in mind as I imagine they would have wasted their time and money.
August's photo album show the dull conditions - I was lucky to manage a day that was dry!
We have had a few new plot holders start work on plots this summer - they must wonder what they have let themselves in for! Anyway welcome belatedly to Denise & Martyn, Andy & Sarah, Mark & Catherine, Stephanie & Simon and Liam & Justine. Watch out as I will soon be coming round with my camera to add you to the rogues gallery.
