Carrots - where did it all go wrong!
Today I decided to dig up the carrots and see what was happening to them! Wish I hadnt bothered.
Cucumber
Yes for those who know me know that I love cucumber and living in this part of Andalucia means you very rarely get the cucumbers that we are used to in the UK
Under attack
I had the fright of my life today, I was checking on the veg, arrived at the courgettes pondering should I pick any when with my next footfall a 2 meter long as thick as your fist brown snake shot out and took off up and away from me

Walkies with Khumbu
Today I went with Richard, a couple of clients from Spanish Highs and Khumbu into the snowy Sierra Nevada mountains. Its always an adventure whenever Khumbu is involved especially in the snow.
