More gardening, eating and drinking

Is the garden getting boring yet?? As I said before, we would rather be skiing and living our old normal life, but there is a lot of satisfaction with getting the garden sorted, trees cleaned up and things we often don't find time for.

I planted these columnar trees two years ago. Despite my best efforts they have been a bit weed swamped and not maybe kept watered enough. This is the year they are going to be cared for well enough to fruit the following year! In this photo I have strimmed the bank, but not obviously right up to each tree

Break for lunch.

Bacon and egg sandwich!

This is after I have trimmed all the grass from round each of the 11 trees and mulched with material, with horse poo on top and staked each tree.

Sloe gin and tonic reward!
