No this is not my garden today, it’s looking as dull and grey as everybody else’s.

That’s a heck of a lot of processing, and I usually manage to foist most of them onto my family and neighbours. As for my friends, they duck when they see me coming with a bag of apples and I’d rather have their friendship. This is just my way of excusing myself for the fact there’s no real blog this week.
