Autumn Days

Although we are only in late August the nights are already getting cold. But we are currently basking in some nice sunchine, while my brothers in England face daily rain. We have found that the Borders seem to get good days right through to Christmas, where although it is cold, it is also clear and sunny. Thisn is our first year to "grow our own" and we have had abundant beans, peas, potato, carrots, cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes and fruit such as blueberry and raspberry.
