After work today I got back on the allotment, trying to make more progress with the carrot/parsnip/leek strip.... 
And I did get more done, but it's frustratingly hard work. The compacted end is getting more solid the further along I get, and I've now had to resort to cutting strips into the ground with the spade, parallel to the direction I'm digging in, and shaving off 5 centimetre slices of rock solid soil before bashing it into pieces.
Anyway. I headed off the plot when the clouds seemed to be announcing The End Of The World Was Nigh. Big scary black clouds carry lots of rain, and I had no intention of partaking of my post-dig pint in The Woolpack and leaving a puddle where I stood...
