    Got to say not had kits around since a kid but I got two here now and they are as daft as a brush play fighting with me on me lap most nights and the mrs won't leave them alone, But they strip a rabbit to bones like Parana's lol That one is going to be a lump for sure Gaz and will certainly get the rabbits moving sharpish if they got sense

    yes we are not allowed weed killer so its just been a case of digging it all out. Right pain as you turn you back and it creeps in from the edges so I try and maintain a trench down both sides of me plot

    manageable sections I guess and ease of access. One of my plots had a couple of raised beds but they were riddled with bind weed and I could not get it out. So I demolished them so I could just dig through with out obstacles. Saying that now I am trying the no dig I have started a few beds but with no sides

    One that just gets on with it and a good finder. My old jill is no nonsense and straight to it and if there is a rabbit in there she will find it

    Anyway having that eye contact is a great thing I hate it lol. My lurcher is all ways laying in his crate with one eye on me just in case. His all ways listening and I only have to touch his rope lead in the kitchen and he hears it from his crate in the front room just the bloody rustle of it. His a good lad but if we ever have another its going out side

    Plot 2 this morning for an hour. Pulling the garlic is all ways a nice day as you can't go wrong really but the white rot got me this year but we managed to salvage a few every thing else on target

    need a bloody catherine wheel to scare the birds up our plots but they do save my eyes

    Nothing down the allotments as yet which is a surprise with the weather we been having

    Bit of hoeing on plot one this morning. These plots get so much easier to handle once you tame the buggers. Things look nice with netting off and easy to work but it wouldn't last long unnetted. Red cabbage, kale and cauli runner bean patch and plenty of cardboard for the slugs these things need to stop going mad dwarf beans and out door toms few broadbeans spuds looking good now goosegogs hopefully they don't all drop off before they ripen like last year looks like I should have pruned me raspberries last year

    ardglass harbour is the exact same yea it was a novelty to start but that soon wore off when he stripped a 100 yards of line off and surfaced with my bass the cheeky fooker I gave up after that and just used to pack up and move

    blight free so far jok but only a matter of time lol. Yea the dreaded whites won't be far away. I hate them sods which is why i net up but still get some damage

    I hooked a seal once that learnt to ambush me as I reeled fish in. It would see me setup from bloody miles away then suddenly appear just in front of me and wait. It was a race to beach the fish before it intercepted and one time I failed. That put a bend in me rod
  19. terryd
    yep will do never thought of that

    Any clues what is going on here with my old jill ? It started as what looked like a cut of some sort. One day it is red and bloody then the next scabbed over and I think great its heeling. But it has turned into more of a protruding lump now with what looks like a hole in the middle. Picture is not the best but she wouldn't keep still. Fine other wise carrying plenty of weight and playing about. Best take her to the vet tomorrow unless any one has any ideas as it looks bad today but was dry yesterday. She is a good old girl

    lol jok you just named the two that don't work well in modules. I have never tried beetroots like that before all ways sown direct and I have this year too but also tried some off in modules and to be honest so far it does seem to agree with them. Plus you dont get gaps and you can slot them in where ever you see fit. All my brassica I start off in pots and get them well developed before planting out. I do sow swede direct as well
