Hello!! Yes we did attend the British High Commission reception a few days ago. Well, we kinda thought that it was a good idea to show our faces since we hardly leave the farm. Gnome:
“…well, we haven’t been seen in public for a while…people might start to believe we are fictional characters…”
Somebody asked me why I was attending and I said that it was because I was Scottish…somehow I think that there was a joke contained in the question…
Anyway, back on the farm, It has stopped raining for a few days but it is still very grey. At least we can walk out and not be sloshing about in wetness!! I’ve got some new pictures…mostly vegetables and plants…ha-ha…we are soooo exciting…but what pictures could we possibly have to show you if we have a farm?
We are growing horseradish which also doubles up as mustard greens. They are in buckets on the veranda…this is to ensure that we always get our greens even when I can’t get out with the heavy rains or if the geese are plotting to ambush me downstairs.
The peppermint is growing really well. And hey look…my pictures are getting better…
Finally, at long last, we have managed to get the sage and rosemary going. Yes, these are more plants on the veranda that need shelter from the heavy rains.
The akee are starting too:
Oh and here is a picture of our back yard. We do indeed live in the bush…
Okay, last farm picture; the summer squash is going crazy with the rains. I guess you can’t complain too much about the weather when you get this:
Have a lovely weekend.
