Ever had ants? Well they discovered the preserving jars that had jam in it... Nice long row if happy ants going outside. Moira was not impressed and had to clear the deck. I washed down the shelves and Moira the jars. The ones that contained the ants had to go... Then a general restack... Went inot Whangarei today and found more preserving jars in the Hospice shop. Small Agee. Good for peaches and lemons and other preserves. Saw a Bramley apple, but couldn't be sure of the rootstock, so I left it in the garden center...Have come to the conclusion that all apples up north on out property need to be on Northern Spy. Takes a few years to get underway but after that all is good.
Was going to spray copper on the vines but showers of rain keep sweeping through. Wind is up as well. Rained through the night. Dam is now full and spilling. Grapes up to the top wire and going for it. still not flowering but soon I hope.
Need to take Jaz for his morning walk. I've noticed that he has a dark ring developing around his muzzle , I think it might be from yoghurt, as he tends to lick the pots clean. He needs a bath... I'll do that for him when he gets back from his walk...
See you
