[Ag-eq] Fig and sundry report

[Jewel]

Firstly, the fig.  The bush, for I will not give it the title of *tree yet:  has, apparently, 
forgotten its child, because in the fortnight or so, since I carried out my last inspection, said 
child has shown no sign of further development, but its parent has done a good deal of growing.  I 
reached down into its protection barrel and my hand encountered leaves:  nice healthy-looking ones 
much further up in the barrel than they had been.
The Honey locusts have sustained some slight damage from the sheep but not too serious I think.  The 
H L that had had it tippy tippy top bitten off is recovering.  When I looked at it yesterday, the 
damaged portion has one little leaf growing, where, two weeks ago, there was just a sharp point!
