It's some time since I have had chance to update the blog, what with rushing around the children every weekend and sometimes during the week, things on at their schools etc.
I have just picked the two last ordinary tomatoes and last cherry tomato from the office plants, although I am going to do what we have successfully done with the tomato plant at home - prune it right back, let it grow shoots from the stem and enjoy tomatoes again by early spring! (I hope...)
In the allotment my wife has finished digging up all the stray potatoes and digging the patch over. We have got winter onions in and garlic at the top end where the beans were.
First time we have grown sprouts - two plants looking good, should be ok for Christmas dinner - although it is not me that eats them!
We also have occasional brocolli, both green and purple shooting, plenty of parsnips still, some beetroot, plenty of leeks.
We have potatoes and onions and garlic in store, we have just finished the apples.
4 or 5 allotment vegetables in December isn't bad for a meal!
