Not a great deal is happening

Well, the weather is so crap, and not having a car i haven't had a great time to get to the allotment. It is driving me bonkers - really want to get down there and weed, harvest my potatos, carrots and beets, need to get rid of the peas, need to plant my green manure, need to tie in my strawberries, need to feed my toms and tie them in, and pinch out the side shoots, - JUST STOP RAINING!!!!!!!
