Tip trip and fruity

OH took me out for a treat this morning, down to the tip :( we took 5 recycling bags of green waste, one of hard plastic (mainly old plant pots and seed trays etc) plus a few other bits and pieces so the little rubbish area near the bins is empty and tidy again now for a while.

After that I went to the allotment. I weeded an area that I was supposed to be planting up but never got round to it and I've sown mustard seed as green manure. Then I picked; potatoes from a volunteer plant, beetroot, broad beans, another 2 or 3 lbs of blackcurrants, and redcurrants without end or side. I've already frozen a lot and picked 3 large punnets today but gave one away. I've cut down one redcurrant and one blackcurrant bush, I will dig the roots out and replace with a Ben Sarak blackcurrant in the autumn, I love blackcurrants :)

Salad for tea again, it is still very hot and humid despite yesterday's thunder and rain.

My happy photo today is a small branch from the redcurrant bush I haven't yet picked, the branch broke under the weight of fruit so I cut it off and harvested it.
