Ooooh, not allowed do that in Ireland (not that it stops farmers), terrible carbon footprint, burning plants.
It's still soaking here, and the potatoes in the front garden are looking great; in the back, a potato grow bag of Pink Fir Apple has revealed several shy shoots.
I should be patrolling for slugs and snails, but was too shagged last night, having made a batch of sourdough as well as mutton stew. The stew with, cautiously, just one of the salted anchovies. What you do, it seems, is soak them in milk for a couple of hours, fillet them and pop them in. Worked beautifully, though I was too tired after a day of writing and researching to enjoy it very much.
