planting turnips and lettuce
I took a batch of photos for you, but won't be able to upload them until Richard's finished fixing my computer. The poor machine has been sick for months, but installing a new hard drive seems to have cured the worst of it (the old one was corrupted and causing all sorts of problems). We had to reinstall the operating system from scratch as it wasn't possible to copy it over because of the disc problems.
Photo software isn't yet on the new drive.
Today, I planted the remainder of a packet of turnips "Armand". They will need thinning to 6 inches apart and will need watering well when it's dry. The rest of the row was filled in with a free packet of Cos lettuce (unnamed variety). These seeds are a year past their 'sow by' date, so I don't know how many will germinate. They will need thinning to 6 inches apart as well.
