Just grape

Time goes fast in the world of Blog. It seems like only yesterday that I was writing my blog from Sweden but it turns out it was almost a week ago!

A few thoughts from today... the 1st of June! Sunshine a plenty! Not a cloud in the sky! Pimms in the garden! Or alternatively... erm, where's the summer? I would like to pose that question - and I don't really need an answer I just need results! ...because one day soon I would like it to get hot.

I (possibly more than anyone else in the world) have good cause to see the sun to shine forth in power. Today marks the beginning of an exciting new series on my blog - Grape Expectations: the Friday Vine Check. As a new feature, each Friday from now until October I will post a photograph of the grape vine in my garden. Of course it will only grow if the sun gets his hat on! During the check I will draw attention to the garden parasites which my vine has hosted that week, the colour and health of the leaves and the increasing girth of my grapes! Roll on haemorrhoid jokes aplenty! Ha ha ha!

In conclusion I have added a picture of the finished product - just so we all know what we're striving for...

I would like to wish you the best of luck in your venture.

I look forward to seeing the progression of your grapes with great anticipation.
