Back from our hols

We're back from our week in sunny Cornwall, where we went camping for the first time with Tiger. It was a lovely week and didn't rain too much. Wednesday was gloriously sunny for our visit to the Eden project - well worth a return visit since the last time I was there it was fairly newly opened.

Our own garden had faired faily well without us there to water it and fend off the slugs. I've been harvesting Swiss Chard, Carrotts and Courgettes this week, although my turnips had been munched - the leaves by caterpillars and the roots by maggots. I haven't been up to the allotment yet, but after the torrential downpours we've had here I suspect it may all be a bit flattened. With a nice big Tescos round the corner I'm not too worried about our lack of self-sufficiency though :)
