The seaweed started to smell pretty horrible! Its been added to the compost and chopped up lets hope it has benficial qualities. The sprouts and parsnips required for the Christmas dinner have now been ordered, so it is still possible that we might have our own veg for lunch on 25th December.
The broad beans are growing well, need to make some plastic bottle collars to protect them from the slugs though.
We've made some bird feeders from yoghurt pots and filled then with bird seed and lard- yum yum! The one in the garden has so far attracted 0 birds. lets hope the ones on the plot are more popular.
The fruit trees - the apple and the can't-quite-remember-what-it-is-tree both need pruning according to father-in-law better clean up those secateurs and get on with that ASAP.
