Did some more watering today. everything looking pretty green and lush. Even the lawn has grown quite a bit since Tom and I played crud last week. 

Not many courgettes today – normally I find a couple of marrows have grown in my absence! Still, there were lots of small ones that will probably be ready in a few days. 

The beans (next to the chickens) are doing well and I picked some of the biggest which look tasty.

Eaten most of the mange toutes, but these purple ones are doing well

And to think I saw both of you yesterday…

Hot off the press, some photos from  The Fambridge Faulkbourne Tennis Tournament.

Really good to see everyone after such a long time and lots of good tennis matches. I played reasonably poorly, and Ben and Jamie were worthy winners.

Hopefully, it’ll be on again next year!
