Today, so far

I was still very drowsy when I got up. I had the fags and coffee at the balcony as usual. I noticed that all the aphids had gone, and so had all the grubs. I expect they have probably pupated now that their food supply has dried up.
I went to the allotment straight afterwards. I had a bumper crop of half-a-dozen runner beans, but there are still plenty of flowers on the plants. My onions had been eaten away, but I harvested one moderate-sized brown onion and some silverskins. I shall pickle the latter with some cauliflower.  I gave the whole lot a good watering while I was there. Then it was straight up to the library.
