Secateurs To Crack A Nut

Park Run fresh and buzzing from his new PB James jogged to the allotments while Linda cycled alongside. We arrived to find a hungry scavenger had dragged a rubbish bag through the fence so that was bagged up again, put back roadside and reported to LBR. Linda showed James how to check if the walnuts were ready, she had learned her lesson from scraping them back with her fingernails and having blackened stained hands for a week, so gloves and secateurs were used this time. We then picked all the pear tree leaves affected by the Pear Rust fungal infection and destroyed them. James then inspected the ailing plum trees and sadly pronounced them dead. After a quick tidy up it was time to lock up and go.
