Frost in Canberra this morning. The rule is not to plant out tomatoes until after Melbourne Cup. Sigh. Usually works but not this year. Back to square 1. But the superb fairy wrens were twittering in the shrubbery and a butcher bird sounding like someone learning to whistle.

Green manure crop before reaping. Have planted this for a few years and vege patch has transformed from compacted mostly clay to rich black loam. And no, the bloke doesn't wander about on Halloween with his scythe. 😁

Joy in the little things. Killed daughter's African violet a while ago but before it finally expired I cut off some very sad leaves, put them in water until they started to grow roots and then put the recovered and healthy looking leaves in a pot. Yesterday the first baby appeared.
