Went to town on cleaning the pots in readiness for autumn plantings.
Used Jeyes to clean out over 200 pots of various sizes.
More runners, carrots, and spuds for tea though. Nice piece of fish to go with.

Laid slabs for a new seating area... well if it's dry on the Open Day there will be lots of "friends" here too many for the patio... ;D

Actually worked at home today,reclaimed an area behind the garden shed and met this chap, he was very patient and sat still while I took several shots. I love 'em but the OH can't bear them

Decided to dig up the rest of my spuds while it was dry.Didn't realise quite how many that was, and since half of them were in a "cleared" bramble patch which has returned to brambles........- four hours later I'm aching and ready for a bath. Pretty pleased with the yield, all things considered, but quite a few yucky runny tubers so will have to keep an eye on them in store.
Also picked lots of raspberries and a few courgettes, toms and carrots.
