Just in time

The borlotti beans were ready to be harvested

And they are now on a tray in the airing cupboard drying fully before storing in a jar

They are smaller than usual due to the drought – small but perfect!

Poorly duck – gone lame

We first noticed a limp a couple of days ago and now he is using his wings to drag himself along the ground. We have picked him up two nights running to put him safely in the duck

We just examined him and one leg is not moving. No obvious cause. Dr Google says to isolate with food and water so that he can rest.
