Dorset milk

First pint (500ml) of local milk! Delivered for 50p a bottle from the farm a few miles away. On the windowsill potted-on cucumber plants Louise F1 planted 25th April.

Another cold night, tomato plants looking a bit sad. Mowed some of the buttercups in the paddock today, so tall and so many. Planted more runner bean plants and watered the carrots which are looking good – no rain for a few days now. A noisy Partridge wandered through the garden, usually a pair of them so was calling for company, I think.
