Very good, JJB.
Unfortunately, the trampoline frame is wrapped around an oak tree and has been turned into a seat/dumping ground. I did try it as a raised bed first but didn't have enough soil to fill it!
A small trampoline would be perfect for this, though. maybe I'll look out for one on the freebie site.

Semi-fitted a glazed door to the living room.I say 'semi fitted' because it opens & closes,but doesn't latch.One of two doors I purchased from a charity shop for a fiver each and carted home in my Vauxhall Corsa!

Pulled up lots of Montbretia in Strip 2. Chopped the leaves as a mulch on the bare soil. Cut back some plum tree suckers.
Weeded Bed 4. Watered GHs.

Weeded Bed 5 and attacked the brambles at the far end of the garden (in Strip 2).
Cut back the shrubs behind GH3 - still more to do there.

Was it a virus or red spider mite? I have 2 cucumber, very prolific but plagued with the mites since planting out. Leaves go motley yellow then die.

Not sure, I didn't look, I'll have a ferret in the green bin to see if I can see any mites. In this case the whole plant went motley yellow and died
