Mutant courgette.

This courgette/zuchini plant has turned into a monster of the greenhouse. Today its about 18 inches long and growning an inch a day.


This is Meg, our English Springer Spaniel.

Nothing she likes better than a run through a wheat field, except a swim in a loch.


Lots of veg ready for the pot now with cabbages, little cauliflowers, baby broccolli, carrots, peas, etc.


This is part of the 45 acre field in front of the cottage. Peas this year and naturally, we'll have our fair share. Nothing like rustled pea and ham soup.

I've been putting off starting the poultry project but hope to make a start this weekend as I have three days off.
