Maud Foster Windmill

We had Maud Foster windmill's flour before, but we only got them from the farm shop.  I finally got to see Maud Foster Windmill.  It is a five sails windmill very centrally located in Boston.  I tried to ring the shop to see if they would open up for me to buy some flour, but noone was answering the phone, shame.

As it turns out, Maud Foster was named after the Maud Foster Drain, and Maud Foster Drain name origin is not known.

Heckington Windmill

I stopped by Heckington to look at the eight sails windmill.  The site is well established, with different business and tempting flours.  It is quite pretty too.

Golden Kiwi

I was made to try some Golden Kiwi.  It tastes a bit like a soft ripen pear.  Either way, I will take a good apple or a good orange anytime, and for the price of that, I don't see why I would ever buy them, they are very much not a treat for me.

Leicester Pride 2025

This is the first time I went to Leicester Pride at Abbey Pride since they moved it a couple years ago.  We watched the parade, then we joined the parade, then we walked to the park.  Nice venue, nice management.

Lidgett Tomatoes

I got some tomatoes from the Lidgett bed.  They have not been staked up like ours, so they are a bit pest damaged, but nonetheless good produces, for the special someone.

Allergy Declaration

When I am asked, I felt I am obliged to answer.  Then there is a whole bunch of hassle to choose what is void of said allergens.  So much hassle!  I must remember not to answer that question next time.

Autumn Garden Tidy Up

A lot of the plants are going into flower, and we are not really getting food from them anymore, they might as well go into the brown bin.  It is only a few brown bins left to discard all these old useless plants.
