Nice one all. Potatoes beetroot and lettuce look OK, Carrots seem to be struggling, to early to say on my onions! -
Nice pictures all, great to see veg being grown. I've got a compact veg patch, and also grow in tubs, and grow bags.

Pat Barker: Regeneration Trilogy Cant choose between Hugh Falkus or Moc Morgans Sea Trout Fishing books. John Humphreys: Country Gun Gwynfor Evans : Bywyd Cymro: (There is an English language version called "For the sake of Wales") Brian Moore: What goes on tour stays on tour. I've been a keen reader all my life, so I love reading fiction, King, JK Rowling, Follett, Hill, McDermid, Lin Anderson and many more, at the moment Tim Weaver is the flavour of the month.

Planted the patch up yesterday: Potatoes, Carrots, Beetroot, Radishes, lettuce, leeks, onions, sweetcorn and French Beans all planted. Some light rain today as well so hoping they all thrive. All being well i'll catch a nice sea trout later this summer to eat with my new potatoes! Cheers Aled -

Nice one guys. I've got some tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, peppers, and lettuce on the window sill. Have planted some potatoes in pots. Will be planting the veg patch with French Beans, Potatoes, Onion Sets, radish, beetroot and carrots this Saturday. Held it off for a week due to this weeks colder weather. Plastic growing frame going up soon. Cheers. Aled -
Well you'll be pleased to know we are not related, my Nan's sister ran said cafe and settled in Gosport, we used to visit her for summer holidays, there was a brilliant outdoor pool in Gosport, which along with the sea fishing available led to some enjoyable family holidays.

Hey Neal this is a serious question you mentioned you were 1/16th Welsh and from Gosport, your Welsh ancestors didn't happen to run a servicemen's cafe during the war? Cheers Aled

Added some wood ash, and did the First dig over last Sunday, also potted some tomato and cucumber seeds. -
Some great pictures and stories all.

Sadly no, very few rabbits in my part of West Wales sadly. Glad other areas are seeing increases, gives me hope! Cheers Aled

Some cracking and very tasting looking dishes on here.

Watched it, he caught some lovely trout out of that loch! Cracking scenery, however what a quandary within him does he stay on in the woods or leave for the town? I knew bachelors and widowers in my corner of West Wales, who lived quiet isolated lives on small farms, the last of the old smallholders, I'm sorry to say most faded and passed away very rapidly after leaving their homes and headed to council flats in the towns. However one or two did thrive! Take what you want from my comments.

I know it was an accident but why didn't he leave the line go slack to see if the hook would fall out......when you do it accidently while salmon fishing the hook always falls out!! I was fishing a bunch of worms for salmon one morning and a otter followed the bunch right to my feet and gave me a good chattering to before disappearing back into the deep! Cheers Aled
