 The climbing French Beans did not do a lot climbing for weeks. I would surrounded the tripod with fences to maintain out subsequent door neighbours cat and did not discover that proper on the backside, solely just a bit approach up the canes some beans had shaped. 

Fortunately I moved the fences away to do some weeding and found all these………..

Excellent they had been too.

I am watering recurrently now after no rain for per week and the crops are climbing nicely eventually. Longing for extra to return quickly.

S.O.S. 2024 is not a cry for assist! However Summer season of Sport. The final one was 2021, when all of the issues cancelled the 12 months earlier than due to Covid, had been held. That 12 months, like this 12 months I liked all of the tennis and Olympics and wrote about them on the weblog beginning with the French Open. I appeared again at these previous posts and noticed that Jack Draper – a younger unknown Brit had a wild card entry into Queens Membership and had a win towards Jannik Sinner. 3 Years on and Jack did very well at Queens Membership is now seeded 28 at Wimbledon and Jannik is seeded #1 this 12 months, above moany Djocovic and final years winner Alcaraz. 

This 12 months to this point  the French Open was adopted by the primary grass courtroom event of the season from Nottingham then Queens Membership event , Wimbledon Qualifiers and now Wimbledon. And on the weekend the British Athletic Championships had been on TV to observe, with many up and coming athletes attempting to qualify for the Olympics.

 I’ve simply labelled a few of my posts mentioning tennis with ‘Summer season of Sport 2024’,  in order that in 2028 – the following Olympic 12 months  – if I am nonetheless about! – I will have the ability to look again and see what was happening.

A reminiscence………….

At 2pm on a Monday afternoon in late June or early July 1980 I settled the two month previous child down and settled myself down, excited for my first ever time at dwelling to observe the beginning of Wimbledon reside…….it Rained! – there was no play – nothing to observe!

Now it now not issues, with two courts having roofs there’s all the time one thing to see and an enormous selection of what to observe through BBC Purple Button.

Simply proves that not the whole lot has acquired worse within the intervening 44 years! 

Again Quickly
