Blimmin ‘eck! You never know what is going on in your garden at night do you? Thanks to Debby H for this screenshot of a local rat climbing up one of her trees. Crazy goings on indeed.
Years ago one lunchtime, we saw a rat sniffing around some bin bags in Holborn as office workers were walking by and eating their Pret sarnies. The rat had not a care in the world and couldn’t care less about being seen. We’re not that keen on rats funnily enough but this ain’t a bad “rat” related tune.
This weekend we sampled our first potato harvest after putting the Maris Piper seed spuds in the garden back in the March here. We made sure to forgot all about them this year as we usually are looking to see if the potatoes are forming not long after the plant flowers.
Even when we were being very careful with the garden fork we still punctured a few and brought up the odd green spud. Now that’s something you don’t want to ingest, the same being for the strange tomato-like fruit that sometimes form after the plant flowers. Don’t go anywhere near them!
On our travels today we found some great looking plant markers on a couple of tree seedlings around Devonshire Road SE23. They look great, very graphic. Love the baby oak one!
