RAIN AT LAST!!

Hello - well, I got my wish! Obviously the raindance paid off!! We have had a very nice dull wet day here at Crown Nursery - I think the first for many months. It has been a steady rain too - just right to penetrate the ground and not run off.

As I type this, it is pouring down - hooray, hooray!! Of course, we need a lot lot more -but it is a start - and it has eased our watering burden considerably - for a few days at least!!

The strange nature of our weather sysyems nowadays was illustrated by a couple of customers from Gloucestershire - on holiday in Suffolk - who visited the nursery this afternoon - they were astonished by how dry and wilted everything is up here - compared to a very wet summer they have experienced in their beautiful part of the world - it just goes to show how a few hundred miles makes all the difference!!

UNTIL NEXT TIME,
RICHARD
