Sweetcorn decimated

Just a quick one. Thank goodness we harvested these when we did.


192 sweetcorn cobs in a wheelbarrow
For, although some of them had not had sufficient time to properly ripen, they certainly ended up better than these....

















As predicted, the harvesting of the fields drove the rats across the dyke, with catastrophic results for the sweetcorn. Fortunately, they don't touch any of the other crops. Besides, they've started taking the bait I put down, so the problem should soon be eradicated.
