I
was having a coffee on the doorstep prior to tackling some indoor
chores, and noticed the purple berries in full along with the
still-flowering fuchsia and passionfruit. I also noticed - although
my photo came out blurry - the camellia bush is beginning to bud.
Still
pottering about in the first few days of November, I decided to clear
the polytunnel of bean canes to take to the allotment plot - and also
fill any seed trays ready for spring windowsill/patio greenhouse
planting. As you can see in my next picture, I managed to fill quite
a selection with a combination of fine dry soil and potting compost.
Here
is an update on the leaf-thief activity of my friend and I - as you
can see, the leaves were almost all fallen from the tree on next
door's verge. I did manage to scoop up four bags in total, as the new
neighbors have yet to move in.
Workmen
have been whirring, hammering, drilling, buzzing, banging, tapping,
scraping, and making such disturbances that shook our walls (being a
semi-detached house). It was not too pleasant to hear these whirring
drills going whilst suffering for a few days with toothache, but...I
managed to get the extra 2 sacks of leaves.
What
is this shot of 'bag for life' bags doing in my garden photos you may
wonder... I will tell you in my next garden post!
