Thanx. 🥃🔥🥃

....please see pinned message at the top to take you back to the start of the channel....

....hopefully the rain will ease off in a day or two and I will post a video of the garden....its looking great right now....

....this week the Elder flower is in full bloom and the spuds have come on loads in the last week or two, not much left in the polytunnel as its all been planted out. Onions slow, but ok, squash settling in, cabbages from last year gone to seed, and the garlic is only a few weeks from being pulled. In the kitchen garden we've got radishes for seed, fennel, sage, onions, leeks, peppermint, lavender, spearmint, rocket, coriander, thyme, chives, oregano, spinnach, chard, tree spinach, horseradish, more chard, echinacia and lettuces. Fruit garden has currants, rhubarb and a small apple tree. Baths are gherkins and carrots. Leeks and kale behind the greenhouse, and tomatoes and lettuce inside. Chillies and cucumber in the small greenhouse and finally more leeks (going to seed) and beetroot and beans at the end....

....same video, but on Rumble....

....woke up this morning after a rainy night to a crack and a crash....large branch had snapped of the tree under its own weight and fallen onto the roof over our table....cut back quite hard to let more light onto the solar panel....
