I know and understand their reasoning PP but, to get so close to an amazing harvest is a bit hard to take. 
A pocket knife is not a weapon in the right hands it’s an essential garden tool.

Summer seems to have hitched up her skirts and moved on. So inconsiderate, I hadn't finished doing summery things yet.

If summer went home JJB, I think April is currently visiting I wish she’d loose her brolly it’s bad luck leaving it up indoors.

The six bush tomatoes in one of the raised beds got blight so we've probably lost about 10kg of fruit. I did plant them too close together though, they grew much bigger than they do in a 20 L pot and one of the varieties wasn't true to type, so I knew if blight came they'd be done for. Plenty of tomatoes still coming from the greenhouse so all is not lost.

The forecast three days of rain has become one day of drizzle, one of storms (could flood, could have nothing) and one of occasional showers. The drought goes on and the forest trees are dying and starting to fall as the ground cracks - so weird to suddenly hear a crash in the middle of the night as it is normally silent.

We were hoping our local lockdown in Kildare was to be lifted, sadly it’s not we’re still in lockdown for another week, and the weather is crapp.
Coffee keeps me busy until it’s acceptable to drink whiskey.

Having to wake up my daughter this morning to take her to nursery after a disturbed nights sleep. Left her in bed as long as possible but still had to wake her n drag her out in to the rain unceremoniously.

Sad day.
Long sleeve jumper, long trousers, socks and heavy lace-up shoes for garden wear, rather than shorts, Tshirt and daps. Summer's gone.
