A few tomatoes (Black Cherry, Polar Baby), 2 zucchini (Golden and Costata Romanesco), 1 Armenian Cucumber, a few plums. We have to pick them a bit earlier than we usually would, even though they still need another day or two to fully ripen, but the birds are attacking them despite the netting. It's frustrating to come out in the morning and the plums are lying on the ground, with some bite marks. The birds could at least eat the whole plum, couldn't they!? No, they have to sample at least 5-10 and just take one or two bites out of them. Grrrrr.....

I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)
