It really feels like Autumn here today. Soft drizzle and very cool but most telling of all is that Autumn sort of smell in the air. The Scottish schools went back this week so despite it being August I can't help feeling that the summer is coming to an end for us. Not complaining though as we have had the best summer for years!
Lots of harvesting still to. The main crop potatoes are dying back now so may cut some of the haulms off this weekend and no doubt there will be a million more runner beans to pick. Isn't it amazing how the seasons came seem to change almost overnight?
Not already......

Nooo... I can't cope with Christmas yet! I suppose I should really sort out No.4 son's school clothes before it's all gone from the shops.
I really love the autumn days and getting things cleared and tidied on the plot. I suppose it's wiping away any failures and setting up the hope for next year. Gardening is great isn't it?
