Catastrophic Carrots - Urghhh!
As it was a nice sunny day, albeit very cold with a keen north-east wind, Husband suggested we made a start on the veg plot we help with in another villager's garden. When we arrived Husband divided the labour - I was given the nastiest job on god's earth. Whilst Husband gently planted out some broad beans I had to dig up and clear the remaining row of carrots (we had grown far too many). I started digging and picking up the carrots only to find a lot of them exploded into an orange mush - it was like handling sloppy cold mashed potato - it was truly awful - I shall not be eating carrots for a little while - I have been thoroughly put off!

I have a feeling that I still have some carrots left in one of our raised beds,planning on investigating at the weekend providing weather is still good!
Yuk! Hard to think of delicious new carrots looking like mush. A
oh that's nasty........if you grow too many this year feed them to the cows or horses in the fields they love them......

Eeeugh ! There's something about decomposing root vegetables that competely decomposes one's stomach !
Seems you'd have been better with a shovel, to shovel then Husbands way. hope he gives you far pleasanter stuff to dig up in summer - like super healthy and scrummy spuds!!!
