Awful weather - typical Brits talk

Oh that's not good news Dusty 😲 but I guess they are desperate for food too as there's not much chance of their natural food being found. Hopefully the damper weather will continue for long enough to get the small critters back on the menu.

On that subject I've always wondered why the societies say that hedgehogs shouldn't eat slugs and snails when they naturally hunt them out.

There's touches of green in the grass now and the raspberry canes look like they might survive after another night of showers. Overnight rain is just the job.

No gardening on the agenda today. I walked round the town and got kindly asked about my progress a few times but kept standing for ages so it's gently does it for this day. More rubbish to go to the dump tonight.

Hoping for a fine autumn to try and catch up on the preserves.

Luckily, it's a small one, but even a determined badger that size could destroy the plastic box, 2p.

Some of the small critters they eat are hedgehogs! 😕Hedgehog experts say slugs are only 1% of the average hedgehog diet.

Our planning application has been rejected on a technicality we can fix. To be honest, having dealt with these jumped-up clowns local public servants previously, if that's all they can whinge about, I'm relieved! 😋

Sun's out. Off to Rosemoor! 😁
