FRUIT AND VEG.


Despite starting a bit late for any serious planting we have had a bumper crop of courgettes. Nearly ready are red onions, green beans, broad beans, tomatoes, and a few spuds.

There is a large crop of apples to harvest so plastic bottles are being saved for making juice (lovely with vodka by all accounts), and a medium crop of golden plums.


Next Saturday night is the Moules Frittes festival at the lake. Can't wait for that one as it goes on most the night and Marie is staying in with the dogs and her friend Lesley who arrives on Thursday. It coincides with the start of the football season back home but Al has been roped in for helping out.
