It's been a warm, grey and sort of breezy day here chez Casa Reynard.
Slept well, but my get-up-and-go is still AWOL. I wonder whether it's met up with Biggs' somewhere... Had a gentle morning albeit a busy one. I've picked a load of ripe and semi-ripe tomatoes, leaving only the green ones on the plants. I'd rather have them ripen in a tray in the utility room than have them ruined by the incoming weather.
Didn't fancy luncheon, but I sat down with a
and the writing. After, I went for a bicycular bimble. Had a sniff around one of my walnutting spots, but only found eleven nuts. There are a lot of smashed shells, so suspect the local rook population has been making the most of what was left of the crop.
I also went to the community orchard to pick some late season dessert apples ahead of the incoming storm. I have two trays-worth of New Rock Pippin and one of Barnack Beauty (both storing varieties) and I picked a bunch of Cockett's Red for the fruit bowl. When the weather permits, I will go back for some more of the latter.
Cat has been fed, and now it's time to go and feed me.
And there's a portion of apple & blueberry crumble with my name on it for later.
