Garden activities

As requested (that's you, LCA!) an update on our garden.

Firstly welcome back to our bright green friends. I saw two together one day, but a week later...
...we counted four different creatures in the garden, including this fat (pregnant?) one  

The poppies are amazing this year...
...and Lindsay's hard work with the pansies has paid off. The iris were magnificent but have now all faded.
In the vegetable garden there's radish, red cabbage... 
...strawberries...
...beetroot, French beans, tomatoes... 
...pumpkins & courgettes. 
In the fruit department one of our cherry trees is very heavily laden (and very popular with the blackbirds)...
...plus plums...
...and of course, apples & pears.

Salut les Tranchais,

Thank you 'M. Jardinier' for the garden update. The flowers are lovely & there's plenty of produce to fill the Kilner jars.

Bisous, LCA.
