Gave the front and back lawns their first cut. Damn grass was tall enough to lose a badger in. There are some flowers on the dwarf apple tree for the first time, the dwarf plum tree is in full leaf but not flowering yet, the olive tree is still surviving and there are signs of the first bunches on the grape vine. All I have to do now is keep the bloody starlings from stripping the vine bare when it's in full fruit. Last year I lost 15-20 bunches of red grapes to the little sods! Any ideas?

When the weather gets drier I'll start planting seeds in the veg strip and potting up a tomato plant, chilli plant, pepper plant and growing herbs.
