A bit of a harvest...




It's July (?!) and I'm wondering where on earth our summer has gone... Not that we've had much of one to start with. Although that hasn't done the veg too much harm, it just means things are a bit later than last year. We've already had some courgettes and peas plus a load of yummy potatoes. (I've convinced myself that home grown tats are miles better than any others). We were worried about the potatoes as the vegetation went mental, but they were fine. We've also managed to escape blight on those in the veggie patch - although one plant in a pot did succumb as did a tomato plant. The give - away was the yellowing leaves with brown spots on them. Once it starts, it's pretty much unstoppable so they had to be bagged up and binned.
