Due, I think, to my inability to water them twice daily during the drought, it hasn’t been a bumper year for tomatoes. More of a steady trickle, rather than having any gluts, in fact. But yesterday saw the last picking of a ripe tomato for lunch, and today has been rescuing the few remaining fruit, cutting down the plants, and removing and sorting the plastic cover for the tomato house for the winter. The “garden waste” bin is now fairly full of that, and runner bean plants also pulled up, ready for collection early on Thursday.
