My son applied, but didn't get a place. Tbh, I'm quite relieved now! Meanwhile, we finished packing the car in light rain at 7 this morning, and have driven South in constant rain, some heavy, now we're near Huntingdon and it's still raining. Heading for the Suffolk coast, expecting strong winds around 2. Storm forecast later for there too.

I've had tons of blackberries and my raspberries are the best since I planted them in lockdown. They both love good moisture and aren't bothered by the temp. Early plums were ok but not very sweet. Victorias are just coming ripe. Most of my apples seem to be getting knocked off by the wind. Squirrels got my pears very early, I think they were looking for moisture when it was dry in May/June, remember that time? Veg-wise courgettes are good this year, just pulled out a 2kg marrow I missed! Leeks are looking good, beans growing well but not fruiting yet. Tomaties would like a bit more warmth I think but growing strongly.
