My Garden in May

Its so exciting to see the apples starting to grow, on dwarf trees only planted last year.

My gooseberry bush is full of berries too.

I will cover it with netting soon to stop the birds from pinching all the fruit like they did last year !

Think I have enough Rhubarb to make Geoff a Rhubarb crumble at the weekend.

The Blueberry bush that I thought had died because I watered it with tap water seems to be doing fine and I might get some berries if i am lucky.

Now, dare I say this , we could do with some rain but just enough to water the gardens 🙂

A hot walk

As Sunday promised to be the hottest day this year so far , it was a great day to try out my new kit.

We did a 15 mile  circular walk from Standon with the Cambridge Rambling club.

As always it was a lovely walk and we did a small detour into Braughing , so we could sample the delights at the village hall.

My new trail shoes were comfortable and kept my feet much cooler 🙂

My new bag was excellent and the airflow system worked brilliant keeping my back dry, usually on such a hot day the back of my T-shirt would be dripping with sweat !

I also took a Clarityn tablet just in case but today there was no sign of any heat or allergy rash 🙂
