I went for a walk along the beach this afternoon and saw my first Cabbage White of the year.

Oh what joy :roll:

Just the one on its own. An advance scout I suppose :lol:

Good job my brassicas are netted, as it seemed to be heading for Lydd, where my allotment is :evil: :lol:
Cheers PJ.

I'm just off down the greenhouse. I won't be long...........
