Life's a bit busy'n'all... chaos, time, energy...

The #allotment is either thriving on neglect, or dying of neglect. It is a survival of the toughest situation. The tomatoes seem to be doing OK, the chillies are mainly in the "thrive" category. We have a hosepipe ban in place, which isn't helping.

The raspberries are stewing on the canes. I kid you not, the whole area just smell like someone is cooking raspberry pie.

The area outside the polytunnel on that side of the plot is basically an arid wildlife garden now, not really any productivity unless you count parsnip & celeriac seeds.

The new side, the greenhouse side, is doing OK all things considered.

It has not turned out to be the organised & orderly plot year I had hoped for. Maybe we will get there... and then we will probably leave. Someone reminded me the other day that I could move to New Zealand. It is a tempting daydream. (But not plausible in the near future.)
