Here's a pic of Big Max, the pumpkin. It seems to have grown since last week. We've rested it on top of the raised bed now as I thought the stem might snap under its ever increasing weight.
And here's a pic of a favourite of mine, Borage ... Not just me that loves it, the bees do too.
I saw the young newt again in the pond, in the same place, sunbathing in the shallows. But a real surprise was to see a rabbit in our "wild" area. I've never seen a rabbit before at the allotment. Wonder if we've any carrots left?!
And finally, I started to tidy up the herb bed which has grown very well this year. Time to cut back the lavender so it doesn't get too woody. Can you smell it? A very pleasurable job.
Lovely photos. :)
