We had a dig last week alan,the ground is like iron still and unless we get a fair amount of rain soon its going to stay that way for awhile yet.Then you are probably like us and most other lads,young terriers to start so a few nice handy digs is the general thing this time of the year providing you have nice handy earths to dig,we tried a handy one last week which finished with an hour long dig through rocks and roots,but we got a result which is the main objective,hope everyone has a good season.
i wouldnt mind a hard dig its heat i would be worried about
