Autumn is well & truly here – and our weekend visit to the allotment certainly proved it.

It was a beautiful sunny day, but the unmistakable signs of nature winding down for the year were all around.

We picked a few remaining crops and cleared fallen leaves & beech masts.

Within seconds, our canny little friend appeared to snack on freshly uncovered worms & insects.

Justin didn’t go hungry either – he rustled up an evening meal from the last of the vegetables and windfall apples.

Pork chop with an apple & chilli compote – baby potatoes & cabbage with balsamic vinegar. Ready, Steady, Cook – eat your heart out! 😉
