Becks - rhubarb is a plant that is a long term thing. there are some you can grow in large pots though.
if it helps go for stuff that is expensive in the shops, beans, peas, calabrese, courgettes. Carrots homegrown are amazing so go for them and I love beetroot fresh from the garden and oven roasted. Sweet corn as Geoff says......
My sprouts this year were really good BUT they do need alot of space between them. Can't remember what else you sais - sorry
This afternoon I have been trying to work out how to use money off vouchers so i get max freebies and max discount Still kept me quiet for a bit
Don't hear of many people being called Lettice any more - wonder why
You can get dog sitters where dogs go and stay in someones home while you are away. I have that problem and from asking around have had a couple of recommendations,
Evening all what a wonderful warm day Ive had in by back garden ,i made a new shelf for putting more seed trays on in the plastic green house i bought in Argos last week €55 last year it was €75 thought it was a bargain just have to persuade the wife to get a real one next year a lean-to type so then I can use my fence which is south facing a 10 x 6 I think fingers x .
Had good lunch out, bloated and stuffed and overdrunk!
Geoff, I could have sworn Kipling wrote "IF". Your chickens look so comfy in their pots.
Hope Bjay gets to see her friends from NZ.
Hope Dan's bruised coccyx recovers quickly. My sister broke hers when heavily pregnant. Leave the rest to your imaginations!
My daughter swallowed a little Lego man's head when she was 2, guess where I found it!
Becks is getting the bug! Thought she didn't do gardening, only computers! Sweetcorn does very well here, but we have hor summers. I grow it because the French think it's cattle and chicken food, so you can't get edible sweetcorn.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
One other dosey child tale. Son no2 fell out of a dustbin, so embarassing when they asked at A&E what he was doing in it he said he was being a Flowerpot Man We had a video of them. I think that was a 5 stitch job!
Fire is burning, OH is cooking dinner, I am reclining on the settee, 2 cats and dog have full tummies and are snoring Sunday - great. just had a thought that normally i'd be nursing my aches and pains after a day in the garden
A bit of a mixed bag today - coq au vin and coccyx Poor old Dan - That sounds really painful. Hope the road to recovery isn't a long one.
Didn't get round to potting anything today as we were late coming home so am having a little play on here. Had lunch out but feel a need for a little something.
