MARCH 28, 2013

This is officially the worst year to start an allotment for 100 years. This March has been the second coldest since 1910, with temperatures averaging at 2.2C (36F) instead of the typical 5.5C (42F),  Woke up this morning to a very heavy frost. We have not been able to do anything at all on the allotment. All waiting desperately for the weather to warm up.
