Drip drip drip little (October) ‘downpours’

Crikey ! What a day. Waterproof clothing tested to the limit – and still found wanting. Supplier informed…

Left the house 8.30am bound for Snowshill, it’s raining. Get to Snowshill – it’s raining. It’s raining all day, harder later in the morning, then again during the afternoon. Get home rather wet – just round the neck and tops of shoulders. And yes, it’s still raining. Worse day for wet weather all year – so can’t really complain.

Realising that my contract ends early December leaves just about 5 more weeks work with the NT. Time has really flown – but really enjoyable and pleased to have made so much difference in all 5 gardens I’m looking after.

Paid a visit to the allotment this week – all looking a little bedraggled, but made some good progress with an addition of a leaf ‘basket’. Decided to put in the effort to collect up as many leaves as possible this year to start making leaf mould. So if you have a source of fallen leaves that you’d want shot of, then let me know, as I might be able to ‘relieve you’ of your problem….

Heard on the radio today that Christmas is only 59 days away. Ummm.
