Today is the 1st September and I've visitied this blog (that I had great plans for) and realised that it's been two months!!! Tonight I'm at a party with friends and, frankly, a bit bored (they're talking about The Fast Show). Facebook has rather monopolised my attention for the last couple of months but I'm over that now. The garden has toddled on. I've had my best crop of tomatoes so far but it's been a disappointing year otherwise. My runner beans are just coming through now and they're looking good. The cabbages are so tough they take longer then spuds to cook. Is this normal? Most of my herbs seem to be taking time out although the fennel is at least 10 feet high and the seeds are HUGE. I've neglected to sow any sprouting broccoli seeds so now need to source some plants to go into the bed I'm going to prepare this weekend. If all gardeners were as disorganised as me teh whole world would starve.
