Among the Rushes...

The little frog required some scenery, so he now has a lily pad and some bullrushes.  You might also notice that he has managed to catch himself some lunch - that is a 'knitted' fly. It's just a few stitches sewn together with wings cut from a plastic bag, then legs of thread.  It would look convincing if left on your dinner...
I know I lost the tomato race with Soggibottom this year - she has been eating her tomatoes for about a week now, so it was quite close run.  However, my plants have been battling the elements outside whilst hers are mollycoddled in a greeenhouse!  However, this is my first picking, two more tomatoes than I managed throughout the whole of last summer.  Jolly nice they were too!
