The garden comes into its own with the perfect combination of rain and sun

The squash, tromboncino, courgette and cucumber plants have grown exponentially over the last seven days.

The Garden Organics lentil experiment has nearly run its course and inside the tiny pods are ……lentils

Runner beans are flowering and French beans growing and we will need plenty of visitors (with hearty appetites) to help us eat all the produce.

The overripe raspberries make a tasty snack for wasps. We have had our fair share now it is their turn to gorge on the fruits.

Wierd things happening on the WordPress blog…..is it the intense heat?

I have been online chatting with the happiness engineers at WordPress who hits the blog (I kid you not, that is what they are called) because a few old blogs suddenly got published this morning. Wierd! Also having trouble uploading photos from my iPad so the happiness engineers suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Aargh …..I am old and nervous about such IT manoeuvres. Might try it later after a stiff whisky and ice.
