Rain has stopped play!

Well the weather has taken a nose dive and we seem to have gone from summer to winter in a matter of weeks. Autumn just never happened. We've had rain for the last ten days and that means we've been able to do very little in the garden. Of course the weeds are happy, as the days are still warm enough for them to grow and the constant rain is giving them all the water they need to really get a grip.
Last Thursday we did manage to get out in the garden and we had some volunteers, Biff and Marina come in to give us a hand. Some students from Room 11 came out in to the garden to plant some green manure crops and to thin out and transplant some of the radishes we planted a few weeks ago. The students made a short video diary of what we did, which you can view here. The forecast is not looking too flash for the coming days. It looks like we'll have plenty of weeding to do after the school holidays,
