Slacking Summer



Its been an interesting summer which has seen a hosepipe ban enforced for the Northwest (one of the wetest places in the UK) followed by loads and loads of rain.
The strawberries cropped fairly well until August and then the Raspberries came into their own, so we have had soft fruit for a few months now. Apples are being harvested and potatoes are all dug - quite a few were 'spoiled' with what looks like wireworm but I need to ask some of the old timers.

I'll try to do more on the blog next year!
