A knickerbocker glory would go down rather nicely right now.

Do you get a lot of wind in your area Bren, assuming JA's are Jerusalem artichokes
Love them in a gratin or stews.
It’s K today and I’d like another kneeling mat come seat or even table I’ve got one but a second one will be handy.

I'm having an L of the Day.........................
with Lemons - but they have to be Low maintenance Lemons - not the fussy ones I've had before that need Lots of Love or they go Limp, Languid and Lifeless.

Longer days, I hate the nights drawing in.

L for lights not bright ones like our PIR security lights instead just need enough light to walk to the GH if I need a bit of lettuce for dinner without being blinded.

M for Maze,
I'd love my very own Maze it doesn't need to have high hedges just calming paths would do nicely.

Melon. I've only ever had one useable melon from several attempts way back in the day. This doesn't mean I'm going to try again, but it would be nice to just pop into the GH to pick one for breakfast.

I'd like to SPY a Molehill-free garden. Mounds everywhere at the Moment. The dogs Mine the Molehills to catch the Moles and leave Massive Muck Mounds that are always in the Middle of paths or beds.
Maddening.

I'd like to SPY a Nuttery (comments not required) - a grove of nut trees that are squirrel free.
I dream of picking nuts, walnuts, hazels, and sweet chestnuts but the squirrels only leave me acorns and they're not really to my taste.
To be fair, I only have hazels and a very young sweet chestnut so they don't have a lot of choice!

Just in time - my Like to SPY for the Day is O for Orange tree - same provisos as for Lemons - must need to special attention, stay out doors all year round and grow sweet, easy to peel oranges. I'd settle for Tangerines but that's a T so doesn't qualify today.
