It’s a not a cloud in the sky, beautifully sunny Saturday over here in West Cumbria. Gosforth agricultural show on today so I’m going to check out the veg comp entries. I know already that I’m going to be extremely jealous of what people have grown but I’m just going to have to cope! Will hopefully get some good pics to post here.
After a rather fraught Friday, the weekend turned into not just good for having visitors but also for having 2 whole days of uninterupted sunshine.
From a gardening point of view, the tomatoes have been turning red before our very eyes whilst picking them and the discovery of what can only be described as marrows on the courgette plants were really a sight to behold, and eat.
This blog is not going to set the world on fire and it certainly will not excite the experienced green fingered people out there. You see, this is my first year with the responsibility of looking after a garden which includes lawns, borders, hedging, shrubs, a greenhouse and a vegetable patch. In fact, I would like to point out that this gardening malarkey only began at the end of April. So you will no doubt notice in future posts, something as insignificant as my first red tomato will be headline news and possibly one of the most ground breaking events ever witnessed.
