Rain, rain, go away

This was only last week, hard to believe now the rains have arrived. The lawn has weed and feed sprinkled over it and with all this rain now I can't wait to mow the lawn.

The veg patch.

 Our cucumbers could be used as weapons, they are so enormous.

 Beans almost high enough for Jack to climb up!

 Beetroot and beans, in their early stages.

 The last of the tomatoes, all that is left of our greenhouse full of tomatoes. We are hoping that they will ripen in the greenhouse and make at least a salad out of them.

Slug graveyard

Those slugs don't learn. I've still got a few slug pellets around my tender young broccoli plants and every few days I scoop up the unfortunate slugs who have been enticed by those green leaves only to end up being victim to the pellets. Yucky job and I feel heartless but I am not going to buy veg only to have it be noshed by those things.

Look away if you are of a senstive nature.
