    Just dug these up so were pleasantly suprised. The rockets have done well, the kerrs pink were smaller and closser to the surface, they have obviously suffered from the distinct lack of rain and have grouped just under the surface to get what little water there was.

    As above. You will prob still get caulis ,cabbages and brussel sprouts plants from your local nursery too. If youve got bramble bushes then the book "jampacked" on ebay i can strongly recommend!! i think if i had got a lotty now i would try to grow a little something in one area and spend rest of the time plotting and planning, weeding, and getting ready for next spring. You need to get a compost heap sited.

    Hi joe. My pumpkins, marrows and a couple of butternut squash got mixed up when my greenhouse got blown over and they all ended up a mess on the floor so im not sure which is which yet. They are planted (the ones that survived) so it wont be long before i know which is which. Photos will follow.

    My wife has left me because of my obsession with Tommy Cooper. One minute she was fine with it and the next she wasnt. Just like that.

    Paddy says to his Pa . "For fecks sake Pa, you were right. Once you get married they dont want to feckin know about sex" Pa - "Have you tried wooing her or being spontaneous" Paddy - "Be jeesus of course, Ive tried allsorts. Ive tried it on in the backseat of the taxi, Ive tried it on in the toilets, Ive tried fingering her while we have dinner but she just says "later" " Pa - "Like i said son, once your married they dont want to feckin know. Anyway, we'll finish this conversation later. Your wanted on the top table, its nearly time for the speeches"

    Im not keen on leaving em in the ground longer than i have to, the worms soon attack and put holes in them so i like to pull them as soon as they flower but this year they are shockingly small compared to last year this time. Its still early mind but .

    Just dug up 2 potato plants that are starting to flower. 1 early 1 maincrop. Plenty pots they are bloomin tiny! The severe lack of rain these last couple of months means a pis poor crop of potatoes for old trap trap! Mind you, these last couple of days might help them swell. Anyone else had a peek at their tatties?

    Leave them in a secure bowl with lettuce and good greens for 3 days then ...... throw them away and go get a kebab! Snails!!! FFS I would need to be VERY hungry to try them.

    Just got home from a top weekend at blackpool with a good gang (a couple off here too) only to find my greenhouse over and all my bloody young plants smashed. I salvaged what i could but the wind has blew it over again and they are mostly knackered. Not much chance of salvaging anything else. Bummer.
