Stake out

We’d finished breakfast, and I was just sorting the weekend’s laundry out, when I could hear Brian tapping away in his workshop. ‘Now what’s he up to?’ I thought.

I soon realised he was making the stakes to support my new fruit trees.

I headed out to help him, and hold the stakes, as he attached them together. Then we carefully attached some rubber ties to prevent the young trees from getting blown about.

They are already showing signs of healthy growth.
