I spent some time erecting a new net for my sugar peas this afternoon. The seed packet said 20-24ins, so I put in 3ft pea sticks. The plants are now at least 5ft tall - do I send a complaining email to Unwins? (The peas taste lovely though! )
Runner beans are very slow this summer in this neck of the woods, only now just coming into flower. And the squirrels have developed a taste for courgettes in my garden, as well as finishing off the last of the strawberries... But on the plus side, my blueberries and raspberries are fantastic this year, though one of my blueberry bushes is very late ripening. Worth waiting for I think
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
I have the car accident ones too..... it was funny how they kept going after I told them I don't drive and have a car.... they suggested that maybe it was someone in my household claiming on my insurance, what for the car I don't own and can't drive??? Clearly they don't listen to what they tell you! Why would I have insurance for something I can't do and don't have??
Lily, I have pelargoniums on my stand this year - a whole rootin' tootin' lot of them

Hi Panda! Any plant porn to look at ; ) Did you ever get any plants for your lovely stand you got last year?

Well done Hosta
Sorry didn't have smilies just now
thanks sgl do you think they'll call tomorrow?
No Hosta - it'll be that woman ringing about that motoring accident you 'or someone in your household' had recently....
re. car accidents, just ask " tell me the date, time and location of the accident" dead phone line, every time.
I can't summon the energy to do that Hosta - they just get a dead phone line from me
Or the one when they say ' your computers broken'.......I say....'really that's clever, I don't have one'!
