Well the raspberry cane which took so long to get going has finally given up the ghost.

All this Grow Your Own stuff is really difficult. Planning has been an epic fail. Planning, or lack there of, is the reason why we'll have no raspberries, pumpkins, pish poor onions, no spring onions....... alas, the list of failings is quite long. Still, at least we've learned from them, and hopefully, next year, things will be more successful. Hopefully.

I can't remember if I've mentioned this before, but the Brussels Sprout plants are beginning to form little buttons. Sprouts for Christmas! The leeks are still going strong, and the Maris Piper spuds are ready for digging up. I'm tempted to do it now, but we've had a fair bit of rain. Or is that an excuse.......? Ok, Ok, I'll do it now.....
