Lettuce - first crop of year

First crop of the year ... picked the lettuces -- although not much from each after removing snail-eaten outer leaves.

Squashes - twi died, one struggling but one taking off and a couple of fruit set already. Planted a cucumber in one corner of the bad but looking like the squash will take over before it gets going.

Very hot. Plenty of watering required.

Working on the latest box. LIned with blue dpm from a skip and filled with green compost, muck. Finally emptied compost bin to top of that box -- nice compost at bottom. Also, disturbed a snakes nest (3 large ones, numerous babies).
