As I looked round the garden tonight whilst watering, I realised I only have a few sessions left of pulling out summer crops and putting winter seedlings. And I was pleased. I’m only too aware that we are going away in the spring and so soon the garden will be able to go on the back burner apart from the odd weed-pulling and picking silverbeet, Chinese cabbage or brussel sprouts for dinner! (or cabbage or cauli or lettuce or beans or peas or radishes or potatoes or spinach or rhubarb - it’s looking not too bad for winter, really)
I’m looking forward to being able to forget the garden for a spell and devote my grey matter to working out when to order which visas and how to get to the right bus station in Laos. Much more exciting for now!
Though I do hope a few strawberries have ripened before we leave!
