This summer has seen some of the most voracious growth in my garden that I can recall. A perfect combination of hot, bright sunshine and copious, regular downpours drove the branches of our walnut trees to put on over three metres, while our apple trees have produced armfuls of the fattest apples. But, of course, such bounty has also encouraged a couple of sneaky thieves to come climbing and leaping into the garden, helping themselves. One of our five cats managed to catch one and was generous enough to allow the others a bite or two.
Autumn has arrived, and as in most years I’ll post shots of its progress. Have a good week, you lovely people!
