For a while the garden was\u00a0inconsolable, having missed the spring flush it went into a right sulk, but with autumn here, not even the shyest runner bean has been able to resist unfurling for a\u00a0sun bake. We have been in a mad flurry trying to get the garden into order for our open day in April<\/a>. Through January and February beach weather demanded a lot of our attention, but now with the threat of\u00a0judgmental\u00a0strangers raising a questioning eyebrow at wilting vines and sorry spring remnants we have to get to the business of\u00a0patching\u00a0up the render and getting onto that damn earth oven!<\/p>\n
