I'm not surprised you couldn't get the bike ride in!  I started planting out yesterday and was outside for ooooohhh about 30 minutes before there was an almighty crack of thunder and then a torrential downpour. I am hoping to get out there today before friends come round for a BBQ.
So so lovely to see what you are doing in the garden. I needed a kick up the bum  to start mine so thank you!
