Now I have piles of fern roots and grass bulbs ready for burning in the autumn. The pile at the very end will be my compost heap. Now I just have to find a way of using this plot advantageously and of keeping on top of the weeds. Below is the root of a plum tree that I have also removed.
The House Martins that had disappeared last Sunday suddenly re-appeared today,there were about 40, sitting on the wires and milling around, then they suddenly disappeared again. Very starnge!
The weather is very strange for July, it's like it has been most of the year, a day or two of sunshine then cloudy for a few; not much rain though, so I'm still having to water the vegetables.
I've had my first courgettes and the first leaves off my lettuce. There are loads of green tomatoes and the pepper are flowering. If August and September have better weather than July then I will have salads at the right time.
