    If you like garlic, you can sow that now , it's very hungry though so lots of feed [ manure of any kind will do it]. You could also sow borad beans if you like, they will grow a little bit, then stop over the winter, then start again in spring. They're quite hardy but I'm not sure how cold it'll get with you, so maybe check bottom end frost proofness :)

    It gets cold. Lowest we've had was minus 19. I not keen on beans though.. Husband has strimmed the weeds in the veg bit and we've had a few morning frosts so the chickweed won't come back at least. Not got round to digging yet, I've got a rotator cuff tear and it's tiring trying to do stuff with one arm, plus I'm tired anyway. I wish we could afford a gardener!
    Thank you taff xx.
