If there were no pickers for this king of the brassicas then I would be there in a trice. Fortunately there are still sufficient pickers visiting by boat to be my proxies.
Not so good today had to pick my own broad beans, potatoes and mint - all in the rain. I wonder if Sparkie would lend my Faversham for the weekends. He could iron the papers for me too. I do miss staff when they're off.
