Leicester vs Southampton was a close game last night

It was Southamptons home game too, imagine having to sit through that

Sabrina Hahn has a book on looking after citrus. I haven't read it, so I don't know what the problem is, but I know the book exists.

Citrus trees are frequent targets of various aphids and mites, I'm no expert but have a lemon tree which suffers from sooty mold which is caused by pests like scale, aphids, mealbugs etc. I've been treating it with a oil which is sprayed on the affected leaves and branches.
