I did the mowing and managed to do some strimming before the cable ran out (actually it seized with plenty left, which I didn’t discover until John undid it at the office).

I’ve cleared out compost corner at last. The poppy had gone to seed. I’ve saved some seed, but I’m not sure that I’ll use it as the plant was pretty big. Getting into the corner and around the corner of the bin I found some new rat droppings, so I’ve reloaded the bait station.

I trimmed a little of the borage, but it’s going to need more attention. I’m behind on feeding according to my schedule, but there’s been a lot of rain recently, so that’s good. Calendula and nasturtiums are doing well. I’m particularly pleased with the calendulas I’ve managed to raise this year.

The garlic’s done now, so it’s time to take that up and leave the oca to grow.
