Lisagran are alpacas friendly or do they just spit? I do not fancy that but if they are friendly I quite fancy seeing them.

My vegetable trugs we bought late summer have been so successful so far I am really impressed with them.

WWM you have now put me in the notion for buying some. I'm finding bending so difficult.

Alpacas and llamas do spit, but only when they are distressed. Camels spit when they are annoyed. Alpacas are gentle animals. Often see them on The Yorkshire Vet TV programme.

The wood has arrived so that we (DH) can finish tiering the veg garden.
Not the best time to suggest trugs, perhaps!

Chocolate is a bean so is technically a fruit. Therefore chocolate is one of your five a day.

Honestly they are brilliant! We spoiled ourselves and have bought 2 medium, ( there is no large) so far I can’t remember the last time I bought salad, we can pick at the moment, spinach, chard, carrots, spring onion, beetroot. We have growing, peas, broad beans spring cabbage, Japanese spinach, onions, garlic and shallots.
We started at the very end of July
.
It is called square foot gardening and when you’ve harvested a square foot, you simply replenish the compost -we add fish blood and bone and off you go again. I have this chart to make sure I’m rotating the veg, properly.

It is incredibly easy, and fun.
