I have a punnet of cherries in the fridge
I may have to eat them this evening.

You people, with your gardens
My garden looks like some sort of overgrown jungle. I filled my garden waste bin cutting the grass last week and I haven't even started on the shrubs & trees.
I don't think the previous tenants did anything to the garden in all the time they lived there.

Hack everything back this year
so next year it will come back in manageable form. Or it will die, in which case you don't want to be bothering with it because it's clearly too fussy.

Exactly what I'm planning
There's this strange shrub with yellow flowers that has engulfed 1/4 the back garden

Does it have long thin branches growing upwards with bright yellow flowers?
If so, it's probably Forsythia, which is one of the first things to come into flower in the spring so you may want to try to hang on to that.

We have planted
Pumpkins, sunflowers, carrotts and parsnips this year, I always try tomatoes but fail. (mind you I'm the very same person who managed to kill a mint plant)

They don't like over watering.
It's s really good year for the garden here, everything's growing like crazy. I even have blackcurrants about a month earlier than normal.
