Getting the veg patch ready

T'husband had a few days off work so I took advantage of the good weather and left him to have some father and daughter time together whilst I went and prepared our veg patch.

We'd already done most of the back breaking work of weeding, so it didn't take me long to get ready for planting.

I've planted some onions that I got as plug plants—I'm hoping they grow into proper onions and not the oversize spring onions that the last lot seemed to be, along with aubergines, peppers and a couple of tomato plants.

I also planted up some seeds that will hopefully be done and dusted before the the high heat of summer - radishes, pak choi, french beans and enough peas to invite Mr Bird's Eye around.  Hopefully we'll get enough rain over the next couple of months and the wind will behave itself to see a good crop.
