Thorns

Out early on the golf course this morning, it was in amazingly good nick after yesterday's deluge. My game was definitely not in good nick though.
Then up to the allotment in the afternoon for a bit of tidying up. Nothing too strenuous, you have to break yourself back in gently. There are beets and marrows in the kitchen now, waiting on me getting the pickling recipes out again. Not sure who planted the roses on the park side of the fence but they seem to prefer our side; they are seriously thorny, going through my leather gloves like they were made of tissue. That's an Ouch!
