Reward

I feel I won the battle with the wood pigeons this year, at least on the gooseberry front. A roll of chicken wire around the wee bush has kept the buggers from a repeat of last year’s decimation. Note to self though: wear long sleeves when picking gooseberries! Picked a decent number of loganberries too so it’ll be a healthy breakfast tomorrow.
I wasn’t completely worn out after that brief foray at the allotment so maybe I’m on the mend, certainly the cough decibels have reduced to non-dog-scaring level.
