I saw this tree on my travels last weekend. You don’t see many of these in this country to be honest. So I was impressed with this.

Some Flowers.

Here are a selection of flowers from around my garden. I have been trying to spend a little more time in it this year. It is a little more rewarding than the plot as it doesn’t require so much weeding. Also, it is more colourful at the moment.

I have had to do a few jobs around the house recently, and popping out into the garden to potter in between has kept me sane.

More Weekend Pics.

I also picked some runner beans this weekend, you can see them here with the sweet peas and corn.

Notice also the courgette. One plant has grown significantly, though only has this small fruit on it. The other plant has flowers, but is stunted for some reason?

Squash.

I’ve been up the plot today to do some weeding and also to pick some fruits of my labours.

While I was there I took some photos of the squash which are coming on nicely. I hope to actually be able to eat some this year. Last year I was saving it and when I went to harvest it, some naughty person had stolen it from me. I went home without a squash that day and was not best pleased.

As you can see form the pics below, there there are a lot of them coming on this year so I may actually get to eat one.

No Show.

Well, there’s notthing to show you this week for a number of reasons. The two chief ones are that:

a) I lent my camera to someone for the weekend, so you cant see any pics as I haven’t taken any.
b) All I did today was weeding and that really isn’t worth looking at to be honest.

It’s been sunshine and showers all weekend, so I’ve been dodging them and decided to call it a day now. I’m home and about to go out for something to eat.

Hope your weekend was a good one?
