Marrow mountain...

Sigh. And the early tomatoes have blight (although the later ones, farther from the polytunnel door, seem clear so far).

Home now, all well (other than Mike coming down with a cold). Will catch up on email over the next day or so....

Slightly worryingly, just after coming in from picking veg I noticed a couple of big-but-minor blisters on my fingers. I did pull a couple of weeds (without gloves) while I was out there, but I'm now wondering which of them were noxious.... There was something unfamiliar with purple flowers. Hmm.

I had a couple of marrows too. doop has turned them into curry which worked reasonably well; but there were only two of them...

OTOH the first bunch of grapes was ripe when I went out into the garden yesterday!

Our grapes are going purple! Must remember to net them tomorrow.

I have at least six or eight tubs of slow-cooked courgette goop (as opposed to doop...) in the freezer, else I'd have made more today. Actually, I could make more as long as I remember to use it for my lunches when Mike's away!
