Tuesday 17th January 2006 - Weather: Overcast and showers

Visited one of my other gardens today. Had a feeling rain was going to stop play, but the showers were light and the rain was fine. Got loads done in the back garden. Finally cleared all of the fallen leaves and couldn't believe it when I spotted ground elder shooting up everywhere. Just goes to show the ground temperatures are going up! This garden has a real ground elder problem and they are avid bird feeders with tables covered in seeds, fatballs and peanut holders.....so picture the weeds that are springing up! Not back there for 2 weeks and I am hoping to get out into the front garden, but I have a sneaky feeling the weeds out the back are going to be rampant!
