“what’s this nice blue flowering thing in my garden? Oh it’s something called Borage and bees like it. Well that’s nice, it can stay…”
Borage…
At least it’s helping keep the strawberry runners, cat mint and nasturtiums under control.

Corn! Beans!
Now the weather has cooled down a bit and there’s been some rain, the corn has grown pretty quickly.
The beans have also gone a bit mad. I think next year I’ll remember where I’ve planted them and put up a little frame for them to grow up.

Shed Upgrade
Our existing shed was given to us free when we first had the plot.
Slowly over time it has fallen apart and is less a shed and more a pile of semi rotten wood. The roof doesn’t really exist any more.
A rather large amount of bindweed had tried making the place its home, but I also think it’s structural.
Our “new” shed isn’t much better, it’s an old metal thing I bought after moving house and needed somewhere to store things while we moved in.
It’s spent the past year in a pile but has mostly gone back together.
