June in Bloom


It was a rainy Tuesday afternoon and after weeks of glorious sunshine I decided to take myself off to the allotments for the afternoon to do the dreaded weeding. So in between the thunder and lightning storms I had a nice walk around the allotment to see how everyone's plots were doing and to check out the fruit trees.


 The Herb Garden looking really lush and green.


Spuds, Chickens wait chickens!, Oregano, chives 
and a lovely view whilst avoiding the Rain.
 
 
There are tiny little Grapes starting to form
 if you look really close top left, Red Chilli's and the
Tomato plants are growing nicely.
 
 
Gordon Blimey Apples, Plums and Pears galore!
 
 
 
 
Despite the crazy weather today, I really enjoyed myself even the weeding part and remembered how lucky I am to have an Allotment at such a beautiful place in Minnowburn, National Trust.
