We are getting summer in dribs and drabs!
After walking down to the village medical centre to see the nurse/vampire (!!) to have bloods taken. Hopefully I'll get the results on Monday..they may be in on Friday afternoon..but I don't want to miss French conversation group!
Most of today has been taking it easy. I have cleaned a few windows...the cloth comes off black and a bit sticky, the joys of living under the airport flight path even ten miles out.
The runner beans are now planted out, and I'm eyeing up places to put the squash plants when they are big enough. Everything is way behind where they should be but I might get some sort of crop.
It was a nice sunset sky tonight..I took that shot at 10pm....nicer than last night's early dark under grey cloud.

Pleasant sky to end the day.
Think your flower is Purple Vetch. One of my favourites when I see it en masse in a hedgerow.
I am late with potting on things, but gradually getting there. I think the compost I bought and used for my runner beans isn't very nutritious so need to give them a feed of blood and bonemeal.
I hadn't thought of growing lentils or chickpeas. Must look into it.
That thought was in my mind....but quite a coincidence with it growing exactly where I'd grown other legumes!! Good for the bees anyway, they are enjoying it
Bovey Belle got there first - out here we also refer to vetch as tares (but I'm aware that tares can also mean a toxic grass). The harden is coming on well.
I think you did heaps. It’s all looking lovely
Cleaning windows is a big job all by itself.
The garden looks very nice to me.
