Don’t know about you, but autumn seems to have literally leapt out from behind a curtain, and gone “BOO”! Its arrived as if over night!
We made the most of last weekends sun, which I believe may be the last of the sunny days for this year, and went to Bridlington with the dogs.
As it now feels like you have to put the garden to ‘bed’ so to speak, I took it upon my self to start doing jobs that I have put off for a while, as we’ve been busy elsewhere. So I chopped a tree down, or rather Mr Veg did, as it involved a chain saw! I just don’t trust me and chain saws…..
…and then it was gone! It had stared to blot out the light into next doors kitchen, and as an Elderflower, it has rocketed in the 4 years we’ve been there!
Going to spend the weekend pulling out my semi blighted tommys, and probably cleaning out the beds of my very powdery mildewed courgettes.
We’ve just picked the last marrow ….
I’m going to miss them now they’re gone…till next year when I’ll be calling them ba*tard courgettes again…!
Yes, it’s time for the big clear up. I started on the garden a couple of weeks ago, and I’ve started up at the allotment now too. I think I’ve got a couple of courgettes left to pick, but that will then be it I think. The beans are still producing though.
I was beginning to think along those lines, but there’s a great forecast for this weekend, and there are so many flowers still blooming, my allotment is like a 6-year-old shouting “BUT I’M NOT TIRED”!!
Noticed that autumn feel before I left for the US, but am really looking forward to those colours on my return!
