How has it got to November? The year has only just started and it's nearly at its end, I haven't achieved much of what I'd planned for the year, or at least I don't think I have. But perhaps it's just that I can't remember what I had planned for the year. I think I must be getting old. Seriously though, this year has passed with amazing speed, yes I know it's not over yet and a lot can happen in the time that's left, but still where has it gone.
Today hasn't been particularly interesting or particularly boring. The driving has been good and the customers who needed it have all had fork lifts available, easy day! It's now that time of year when I don't see home or my orchard during the week as it's dark when I leave and dark when I return, not fun. As for my orchard, after the disaster of losing nine young apple trees to the wet conditions in spring things have gone well enough. I have just put a land drain through the effected area so even if we get conditions as bad as last year I shouldn't lose any more trees. I am re planting the lost trees this winter and replacing the old hedge that I removed last year with a line of espalier apple trees.
See you tomorrow.
