Word of the day....alliteration

Why? Because my taties are trashed, broad beans battered, courgettes crushed and foxgloves flattened.

Monsoon rains and gale force winds have, yet again, tried to upscuttle my gardening efforts but all is not lost. I had the foresight to get out on Thursday night with stakes and string and truss up as many plants as I thought would be affected by the weather. I couldn’t do them all, hence the damage, and I’m sure most will survive although it does set them back a bit.

Comment by Mr Sparkles on June 24, 2012 at 16:18: My broad beans have taken a battering too, and my french beans are all but destroyed. I'll just replant and carry on regardless! Think it's what we have to look forward to from now on, so i will just have to learn to live with it !
