Satori in Paris by Jack Keroauc.
A series of poems in a stream of consciousness and rambles. Post-fame Kerouac goes to France to trace his roots. Despite all the drinking, its more upbeat than his other last novel, Big Sur -which is one ugly book. If you like On the Road, you might like it. About Love and Other Stories by Anton Chekhov
A collection of short stories themed around tragedy. The translation feels natural, the prose is lyrical and timed. I liked the 'The lady with the little dog' and 'In the cart'.?? Currently reading: The Idiot by Dostoevsky.
Hop cone comparison
Golding are aroma hops. Small fluffy cones, pale in colour.
Challenger has elongated cones, these have a dual-purpose -bittering and aroma.
Fuggle cones are a lot like Golding.
Not long till I'm up to my neck in hops and beer
Quite odd how some buds have developed faster than others.

Photos from the allotment
Went to the allotment today. Picked the last of the broad beans, courgettes and a few peas that I eat there and then without cooking.
I need to have a huge weed out soon.
