Fab veggie garden. So nice to have so much room to grow. And no weeds!
They are sloes - blackthorns. Great for making sloe gin, horrid to eat. You usually wait until after the first frosts, then pick a load, fill a...
We have had some misty cool mornings here in Essex, you can almost smell autumn in the air, and I am NOT READY! Summer can't be over yet can it?...
Fab pics there Pat, so clear and sharp, and lovely blue sky. I love an air show - went to a Battle of Briton one last week. Those wing...
For me, and I know some of you foragers out there, late summer is a great time for the free hedgerow goodies. Last week whilst in West Sussex...
Fabulous tour as usual. Honestly Sjoerd, I think you missed your vocation in life - you should have been a tour guide! I would love to see the...

I love them and we have tried and tried to grow them in our conservatory, but they just don't do it and whither and die. Good luck - I am very...
Wow. And as I type this, you are there! Amazing. I am sure you will have a fab time and like the rest of the gang, I can't wait to see some photos.
