    Sorting out some tech issues took up most of the day, but I did manage to use up some of the tomatoes that have been ripening indoors to make soup and started planning where next years crops are going.

    Not too much damage from storm Darragh, although one of the wooden poles that supports the tunnel net has snapped off (probably rotten at the bottom) and the allotment is flooded again. I did manage to pot up some lettuce seedlings yesterday.

    Some bare rooted gooseberry bushes I ordered are in the post - I'm really hoping they will arrive today as I don't fancy trying to plant them in a storm over the weekend!

    Stuck at home today waiting for someone to come and adjust the hinges on my back door. Infuriatingly, although the job will only take a few minutes, they can't even say if it will be morning or afternoon, let alone give me an approximate time. It is therefore highly unlikely that I will get any time in the garden.

    Not much time today but I did manage to get to the allotment briefly to do 2 specific jobs: cut pieces of mesh to cover the mulch round the newly planted blueberry to stop the cat/birds from pulling it about, and peg down a branch of the chilean guava, which should then make roots, as my sister said she would like one.
