That rhubarb looks a bit floppy doesn't it?

Nothing worse than when it goes floppy, my OH says.

yep, may as well chop it Mr Bobbit.

This is the wettest april on record, going back almost 130 years. So far this month we have had 153 mm of rain. Another wet weekend to come - grief.

York is at bursting point again...it is the closest I have seen the river coming into the garden..
