So's ours but only cos I misread the clock and stayed out in teh garden an hour later than I should have. Bang goes the roast spatchcocked chuck and parsnips. We're having proper local meaty pork and herb sausages baked with red onion and courgettes and tomatoes from the garden.
I'm off for a shower while it all cooks.

Really p'd off with something being repeated ad infinitum in an attempt to prove a point/provoke an argument ... if someone has something they feel strongly about they can always start their own thread ... I've had to ask Nora to lock the hosta thread Shame Maybe we can discuss hostas again another time.
It does @Hostafan1 .. but it doesn't stop somebody spoiling a thread for everyone else by labouring a point over and over again and attempting to rile anyone who disagrees or doesn't want to talk about the particular bee in his bonnet. Best thing is just to shut it down and talk about it later. If they do it repeatedly on other threads I'm sure action will be taken
Supper has been eaten ... football has started ...
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
My deer don’t seem to have read the Hosta book - all leaves stripped bare again this year, over the course of about 2 weeks, so they obviously kept coming back for more. We’ve been here 11 years, they ignored them for the first 9.....what’s that about?

Dordogne is much greener than Norfolk. There were 2 big storms a couple of days apart. No real damage here but the drive is a bit of a mess. I'll tell the Mairie next week, it belongs to them. Our bit is flat and OK, we recently resurfaced it, well, the farmer did.
Veg garden has shot up. We had spinach, broad beans, runner beans and baked tomato with our fish tonight. Pots all look thriving, but there is loads of dead heading to do.
Internet here seems slower than ever, took ages for the site to come up. Couldn't see Fairy's hedgehog photo.
We aren't watching football.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
