Happy Tuesday! For me it's Glaze Day 2 - I have very large order (for me) to fulfill! Not complaining just need to stay focussed and resist the sunshine (at least some of the day!)

Spent a happy couple of hours digging, weeding and planting onion 🌰 sets and runner 🫘 at the allotment. Rewarded with a visit from the sunshine 🌞 and this lovely butterfly. Spring is definitely just around the corner.
