Everyone I talk to says they've planted potatos already. Are mine the only seed potatos still sitting in their egg boxes?
It's just too damp and muddy to dig the plot. |

I've put about 10 in a week ago, when I told my French neighbour he looked at me like I was mad
It's been too wet....I may do some tomorrow if we don't get more rain overnight. |
