Clearing out the patio strawberry 'bed', I found two ripe strawberries. I ate them and didn't share. They were lovely.

Ooh you big meanie JJB. I bet you don’t share your last roll either.

Realising today was Friday, and apart from a morning in work meeting a client tomorrow which shouldn’t be too taxing I have the weekend off.

My son finished building our patio pergola and raised bed and he made me a mobile BBQ table.
We had an open slab patio up against a fence and he transformed it to an outdoor room.

First yellow peppers.

First aubergines. The plants were ravaged by aphids that have belatedly been finished off by a predator.

Nice to be home after 3 weeks away, I do miss the view though

Where have you been Boss?

Nowhere exotic, Torbay

Spotting a grass snake while we were out, then finding a huge courgette that had been hiding under some leaves.

I am all done and dusted with my house in Grimsby and no longer need to travel back and forth every time I have a weekend off work. It's so nice to have a weekend to try and unpack and organise my new accommodation properly, rather than hopping on and off trains and trying to scrub scuff marks that predate my tenancy off floors. I left the place about a hundred times cleaner than it was when I moved in (not difficult, there was poo in the toilets when I arrived!), so they had better give me every single penny of my deposit back.
