OK, I'm a nag. I've been called worse in my time.
I'm just popping out to the GH to sow some Mangetout. Thanks for the reminder.

My first sowing will be of some enormous blackberries (freebies from Morries). They are Driscoll's x Victoria https://clockhousefarm.co.uk/blackberries/

My brother brought me one of his huge apples to try. He has no idea of variety (he bought a job lot of cheap fruit trees and never looks at labels - if they had any), but it is very similar in looks and taste to a Cox. So I've sown the seeds. they'll probably come up as crabs. I've also potted up 2 volunteer apple sprigs that have come from cores thrown out for the blackbirds.

Added 2 avocado stones to the box. There were 2 in there that had shooted but looked a bit dry, so I gave them all some wet paper towel to encourage them to do better.
Saved a pip from an orange.
