About time for an update methinks!

I went back to work on Monday, my back is still not quite right, but too few staff at work for me to stay off any longer, rest assured tho I am taking it easy!

Had another session of accupuncture yesterday, Lee tried making me laugh whilst I had 20 needles stuck in me, I'm gonna have to get my own back on him now! Lol!

Lee harvested the next batch of spuds today, another 55lb of lovely reds, not bad from 10 seed spuds!

Lots of things growing on well, methinks we'll be harvesting lots in the near future!

So, we're definitely in a profit situation as for the balance sheet, up £270 so far, we may even possibly have enough of a surplus for us to include the £400+ costs that setting up the apiary has cost us this year, even if we dont manage to get a honey harvest this year!

Hope your harvesting as much as we are!
