Remember my bird netting cone from a couple posts ago?

Well, something got inside and managed to ravage the sugar snap peas- which suggests to me that whatever has been munching at my vegetables is likely to be a rat like being.

I added more ties to prevent any large gaps from forming between the mesh, but I think we’ll just have to see how it goes. This is the sunniest spot for the plants at the moment so I don’t really want to move them elsewhere.

The back garden is doing alright thus far (i.e. nothing has been eating the plants here).

And I finally have garlic chives sprouting out! I use a lot of this stuff when I make Gyoza on occasion, so I would love to have a giant bed of them one day.

There are some beautiful autumn colours about at the moment. It’s probably my favourite time of the year, because it’s not freezing, not hot, and I’m not sneezing like crazy (thank you, hay fever).
