Rain: winners and losers

[Prepper1]

Thats what happened on my allotment...
Its at the bottom of a hill, the soils only about a foot deep with clay underneath, so when there's heavy rain it just sits there.

I managed to get another allotment further up the site and a little rain stays but then disappears as the soil is deeper there 2-3 foot before clay so there's more chance this year of a decent crop.

I'm keeping the other floody plot this year to see if I can get some spare top soil for free to build it up.
I could always dig it out and put a trout pond in I suppose if they let me...
