Books and things that go quack!

Not a lot happening at the moment due to the weather. Its rain, rain and more rain... Thoughts go out to all those who have lost homes and possessions through the flooding across the country.
Last night we had very strong gales on top of everything but luckily we came off light. There is a smallish tear in the big polytunnel which will have to be patched and taped and some of the polycarbonate had flown out of the cucumber house but apart from that everything is still firmly attached to terra firma.
Had a ride into town today and got some gardening books out of the library to browse over:

 

Then from town we popped to the allotments just to check on the poultry. The ducks are slowly starting to come into lay but the hens must be on strike...

No sooner were these six laid they were sold!

Hoping to get down to the new plot tomorrow- got to build some compost bays and check the polythene is still down after the strong winds we've had.

More on this to follow. Have a good day one and all!
