Zoomer I will have a look through seeds and see then let you know
Was horrible at allotment earlier the wind so strong (really really bad) took two hours to put the tarpaulin back on roof of shed and tie on - every time we got it somewhere the wind would take it back
Harvested a few potatoes and covered dug area with carboard and bark chippings
Hi all, weather was awful about mid day yesterday, I was half way through planting my onion sets when the rain and wind came over, had to retreat into the poly tunnel, thought it was going to take off!!!
Finally, when it had blown over, the rest of the day was clear blue sky, so got a lot done. Pruned gooseberry bushes ,finished planting onions, dead headed strawberry patch and dug up my celery ( not so good this year, covered in brown patches!) Even managed to mow the paths, so all looking ship shape! no big jobs left to do now except carry on harvesting and digging in more manure. Got a few projects to do at home now, so will get on with those.
Hello , Cape gooseberrys, just remembered to say I kept the plants in the greenhouse and they have flowered and now have a couple of fruits growing , not sure if they will survive the winter but can but try

Thanks zoomer, did you want any seeds?
Happy just to give unless you have any surplus, I do have lots of seeds though both flowers and veg as I get free packets from mags.

Hello , we have visitors coming this weekend , did originally intend to do jobs on allotment
Starting to slip behind with jobs I wanted to do before weather turns nasty
Ginagibbs sounds like you are on top of things
Hope weather holds for Gardengirl to finish the shed
Thaks GWRS busy for you then - Going to go to allotment plot and try to take pallets apart for the last out side wall, dry out but cold
Ginagibbs my celery got brown patches on but made the sticks bigger with tomato feed - think I will make batches of soup with it and freeze it
Zoomer looked though seeds and have lots of cape gooseberry seeds if you some?
