Strawberry underworld

This blog helps me record variations of the seasons (in a casual way). So just as I blogged about the hard frost we had exactly a year ago - May 26th -, here I am recording allotment neighbour Delta's first strawberry on 10th May.
I feel I neglect my strawberries but they are such do-ers and have converted spring 2011's take-it-for-granted endless sunshine to sweetness and tang in a way I am grateful for. Then today purple skies, sweeping showers and hail - slugs ahoy! Weekend jobs: weeding and nemaslug.
