Waked Kato early doors then went to Boot Camp. A Barre session afterwards was cancelled so I headed for allotment. Did some weeding then came home and cooked my dinner. Now looking forward to the match followed later by boxing on telly which I may, or may not stop up for as I have Barre in the morning.

Stewed apple puree. It goes 'dollop' when I put it P's pudding dish.
you can get tomato dollop and at a stretch potato dollop (mash with too much liquid) it's a very scientific, technical term, perhaps that's why you're unfamiliar Another one in our house is 'Gubbyjub' another name for Instant Whip, I've absolutely no idea why.

Apart from gardening I lit the wood burner for the first time! Autumn is here!!!

Did lots of clearing and tidying today. I cut down the container rose that suddenly decided it wanted to be 15 feet tall. Not really the right time for pruning roses but it was looming over my poor neighbours, so the rather drastic haircut was definitely needed. I've also weeded down the side of the greenhouse, getting completely covered in sticky seeds as I went. I'm thinking about sticking some early potatoes there next year as I hope the area will warm up early being between the greenhouse glass and a fence.
I've cut down all my greenhouse tomatoes. They were doing great until I caught COVID again during those really hot days. While I managed to keep them alive for that first week, it's taken me a couple of months to really get my gardening oomph back and they have all died in that time. I've collected lots of green tomatoes from the plants, and am sure I can come up with some way to use them. All the (dead) greenery has been cut down and added to the compost heap. I've tipped the used compost onto a bed that I started preparing but never really got going with as my compost supplies ran low. I've sown some seeds there that may still give me a late crop, like turnip tops and corn salad.
I've also harvested some more tomatillos and made a sort of salsa verde that has also included a home grown courgette and my first harvest from the Welsh onions that Veggie put in the seed swap (they've done really well, but I've wanted to let them establish properly before I started picking leaves). They have more of a leek flavour than a spring onion one, so they didn't entirely fit with the salsa verde but they will be great for soups and stews.

Sowed seeds in the GH, set up the guttering in another GH for salad leaves to be sown on Thursday.
Cleared more couch grass from the North Strip.

It’s been an apple day here, dehydrating, juicing and the small bit were cooked then frozen.
Trimmed some courgette and cuc leaves.
