A lovely day

for a spot of weeding and digging:
This autumn we are planning to cultivate the last strip of our allotment:
I made a start by cutting the old raspberry canes down and cutting the grass:
The plan is to dig manure into this patch and plant spuds next year. I also dug up the strawberry plants that were next to the leeks and moved them near the blackcurrant bushes. The old strawberry patch (which is good for throwing pots) will be dug over with some manure. Here are the strawberries in their new (soil improved) home:
Finally, I noticed that something had (very neatly) stripped the skin off this courgette:
I wonder what type of animal did this (a bear perhaps, John?!).
