View from the top


It really is starting to look lived in now. The compost bin and greenhouse are finished, the fruit garden is all settled, the potatoe bed is covered with plastic warming for planting in April. The long bed is marked and fully dug so only the large bed at the top to be done.

We were offered our evening meal today when Ted (the foreman) appeared with two rabbits that he was holding by their ears (humanely trapped of course). I politely declined telling him that I prefer them not looking so cute and with a Tesco label on them. As an alternative he gave us six enormous leeks.

Met our neighbour, Frank. He could talk the hind legs off a rabbit so between the two of them plus our fencing, we should have reduced the risk considerably.
