We cut the last of this year's cucumbers this weekend, had what is probably the penultimate picking of peas from the allotment
and the last pickings of runner beans. The raspberry canes continue to deliver up small offerings of fruit and the carrots are still good to pull.
All this is really good timing as we are off on holiday for 2 weeks next Tuesday and I would have hated for all this produce to go to waste. Oh and did I mention the tomatoes? Well they are cropping really well this year in the greenhouse but the ones we planted outdoors have suffered from all the rain.
Here are some garden pics
and also one of three dragonflys that were buzzing around the garden all weekend.

There are some enormous green dragon(flies) around these days, aren't there? I'm sure they are a recent invention!
Our tomatoes have been rubbish!
Lovely garden.
I spent a fair bit of time in the garden Sunday - however mine was the usual Furtheron on approach of hacking back stuff that had overgrown other stuff. The fushia I thought was lost is now at visible again although not looking too happy with itself!
Fabulous pics. I do miss runner beans and raspberries.
I still have masses of ridge cucumbers -I can pick ten at a time - these are the same as the ones Tescos sell for a pound each...
I have loads of Acorn Squashes - real over kill, and sweetcorn , cabbage, leeks, radishes and such right now..
Also sprouts and swedes growing nicely for the winter...
Still some potatoes (lates) in the ground, and I have just planted New potatoes aiming at Christmas...
