Hi there Paul- and welcome to the Vine!
This year just HAS to be drier so don't let the weather put you off!
Where about are you in the country? There were so many areas hit by flooding last year ( fortunately not me!)
If you could pop your rough location on your profile, then we'll be reminded when replying to your posts- might make a difference to answers/ questions!
What are you planning to grow?
I look forward to your advice on flowers too!

Welcome to the 'Vine Paul Last year was foul wasn't it? Although I didn't get completely flooded so I was lucky really, there was really early blight, no sun to ripen anything, onions rotting in the ground.. It's got to be better this year?!
