Rain

It has been a case of dodge the rain this bank holiday. I went up to the plot to plant potatoes and the heavens opened on me with hail. So I retreated after only planting a single row. I will have another go when its not so wet.

On another note, I had ants in my back garden a last year and then suddenly they went away. I now know where they went. They crawled in to the pot where my Azalea was. I wondered why it had not come on this year so decided to have a look at the roots.

What a shock I got when I did as there was a huge ant colony amongst the roots with eggs and everything.

I think the plant is dead, but I will try and recover it if it is possible.
