MEANWHILE, IN THE VEG PATCH, APART FROM PESKY PESTS...
While pesky pests such as slugs and caterpillars have had a go at my plants, things are still coming up lovely. If you haven't yet grown Apple Mint, I can recommend it. I use it to make a refreshing change from coffee. I do wish I liked ordinary tea, but it isn't going to happen.
It grows wonderfully, as do my chives. I cannot eat them fast enough!

And the new carrots, red lettuce and Rocket (in pots), are doing fine.
