Enough H2O for tomatoes?

The plants are growing and the plot is coming together. Digging takes time, the horsetail sneaks up when you turn your back so you dig, then fork, then rake. Then fork and rake again.
And again.
The solution for tomatoes is grow bags. We bought two.
This afternoon J came with more plants, so I think we need more.
Lots more.
We had coffee in the front garden, S/D of course. They are still concerned for her Mum.

(Just seen Emma Thompson and Greg Wise reading a play about the plague in seventeenth century. Missed who by, should have listened. Very pertinent to current situation.)

Tidied the patio yesterday, to try to give the potted veggies some sun. P helped to cut some of the magnolia off and took the trimmings down to the tip this morning, dropping me off at the plot on the way.
Waiting time at the tip today was only an hour!
A. came and we worked together.
There is a frog in the well, despite A's best efforts to rescue it. Fortunately, there is also more water than there was on Wednesday.
My green water butts are empty. Rain was forecast last night, but made little impact. Rain is again promised tonight and tomorrow.
Her's hoping.

Neighbourhood coffee arrived yesterday, as promised.
Hurray!
Book for M is due at his house in the next 3 days - hope so.
Emailed Liverpool Phil about the cancelled workshop for A+J at the end of the month. Need to phone them for refund.

Scotland and Wales are slower to relax lockdown. Lots of numbers bandied around at the dismal trio this afternoon. Lots more testing, promises of tracing (physical rather than an Ap which is dubious), deaths still in the three-hundreds. There is now some news of those dire cases who are now coming out of hospital.

P needs ice, so maybe shopping tomorrow? Although we did do Tescos on Wednesday. Good for growbags, but expensive for most stuff.
