Mid-autumn colours

The last of the sun caught the allotment this evening making it look its best. The pear tree nearest the shed is still holding on to its fruit. They are quite sweet and I'll bring them in soon.

As the potatoes came out I have replaced them with leeks. They are looking good for a Christmas harvest.

We have has weeks of beasutiful dahlias this year. They are still going full pace in the allotment and we will be enjoying them right up until the first frost.

The roses are still producing a few flowers - they don't last long indoors, but they are beautiful and smell perfect.

... and special greetings to my number one blog fans from Brixham, Devon - sorry for the gap between updates!
