I know I am fascinated by statistics! So some more.
7 October figures first. With 27 September before them.
I READ THIS AND STARTED DRIBBLING!
I could forget the lamb and just eat these – which I will try out!
DATE AND APPLE SLICE and a gin.
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
It looks like the government will follow present path until it goes wrong, and then after a suitable period of inaction, make some wrong decisions! Where is the leadership?
Putting increasing numbers of places into lockdown will not solve the problem, we have seen cases rise in these area despite the measures.

It does not matter what you call it, unless a strong case is made for any intervention and all sectors of society accept it, it will not work. We are told that unemployment is hitting the young and the poorest hardest. Lock down puts these peoples jobs and opportunities at risk. Marshall law and

As usual – hot air with no substance. Don’t. they realise that high levels of Covid-19 is hitting the economy too. Calls for track and trace to be locally organised have been stated for months.

Definite end to the season. It’s been fantastic, so much fun in picking my own. I reckon I picked about 10 cherry toms per day for at least 3 months.

And I will start a tomato recipe book here.
