the first harvest


This morning I picked the first strawberries before the hot north wind cooked them in the tunnel house. Growth has been rapid with the peas forming as you watch. 
 
 
Conditions were good for David to catch 15 garfish out the front - and it wasn't hot where he was, knee-deep in the sea.

David and Rory are crayfishing together which means they use one boat to check their four pots and share the catch. We had the first crayfish then Rory had two and now we've got a cray and two crabs. Local lore says that you don't catch crays and crabs in the same pot and so far that's true.

Crayfish score (caught in David's pots): 3
