Three Types Of Apples Stored

The youngest two and I harvested 16 trays of apples at the weekend. 

The first was winter banana, stores great, but doesn't taste good after it's been stored for very long, we'll eat these next I think. 

Cover For The Electric Fence

The unit itself is waterproof, but the extension reel isn't. So I thought I'd use a a rain barrel that has a small hole in it to make a cover. 

A bit of ply on the bottom, a few hinges, and it was ready to go! 

 

Somehow it was one of those jobs that I'd been putting off, but didn't take too long. Hopefully this will help keep it a little drier as the mornings and evenings get damper with dew and we have a few rainy days here and there.
