yeah unfortunately the budget for a drain right now is nill, but its on the list! its not affecting the garden beds, just the grass in low lying areas so just gonna try and bodge it as best I can till I can afford a better solution.

Maybe use the garden fork to stab lots & lots of holes in the low lying bits to help aerate the soil. Will help a bit but isn't a permanent solution.
