I've been playing with the 30 day free trial of Dobies (of Devon) garden planner software. I've not included the whole garden, and not used all the software's features, but I like it so far. I put in last year's plants and it warns me for this year's positions for healthy crop rotation which is handy. It can create a web page for mobile use which might be useful when I'm outside, although could result in a very muddy phone!
If you're interested, the webpage it generated is here.

Fruit
My raspberry and strawberry plants arrived yesterday! I ordered them from Dobies of Devon a couple of weeks ago and they arrived safely as bare rooted plants - Joan J raspberries (an Autumn fruiting variety) and Royal Sovereign strawberries. The planting instructions are very comprehensive (a complete booklet!) and suggest waiting until the ground is not waterlogged. Given the weather over the last week and the forecast for the week to come, I decided to bite the bullet and plant them anyway - fingers crossed.

5 strawberry plants went in Amy's raised bed |
