Seachange mechange

A lot's happenened in a year. S.O. and I have thrown in the ratrace that is Sydney and moved to the beautiful South Coast of NSW, where today it is absolutely bucketing down. We are on the edge of town next to bushland, with a fabulous 1000 square metres of potential garden, the creation of which can be seen here. There's been moderate success with tomatoes, carrots, onions, herbs of all descriptions, potatoes, and ground cherries (a truly delicious fruit similar to a gooseberry). Winter crop is in and has been washed away twice, and something is eating the peas as they sprout. Broadbeans are doing v. well though.
