No matter how much organic stuff I dig into the borders the solid clay not too far down stops any proper drainage ;-(

I feel a bit mean saying I like this photo but having a front garden of heavy clay that has defied all my efforts to improve drainage, I know exactly your problem. I will be trying more grit in the spring, when it dries out enough to handle!

I usually do the same as Hywel and Gee, adding grit for drainage.
They do this on the Gardeners' World TV show.

Could you add grit maybe to help the water drain away ?
