Chantal I now realise thats why if your not Green your cabbage like I just hate it when things go wrong, I have just found a whole tray (40 pots) of sweetcorn plants nipped of at the base by a mouse so he could scoff the sprouted seed. Ha, the traps out loaded with peanut butter and he had better ke...

Actually ahem. I only have three legs

Here is a survival guide of what to say to the lady in your life who has just quit smoking. DANGEROUS: What's for dinner? SAFER: Can I help you with dinner? SAFEST: Where would you like to go for dinner? ULTRA SAFE: Here, have some chocolate. DANGEROUS: Are you wearing that? SAFER: Gee, you look goo...

Roses - that's how we'll smell - just like a rose garden. Since I found out how many I'd had and how much I spent in the last 2yrs 9mths, I am even more determined. Piglet then went on to tell me that I had spent £52,000 in my lifetime on fags! If only we had ALL decided at 13 NOT to smoke but saved...

Garlic Guy,

If my crop is successful, would you like me to send you a few of these?

Dont get too Green eyed now

Allan,

I have fig leaves, rhubarb leaves or if you really need them GUNNERA leaves. One leaf or two?

I thought that Grock might like to see a little something that I made at work for the top of my workshop roof.

Appropriate eh?

LIZZIE AND GROCK - YOU MUST READ THIS: Piglet just worked out how many fags and how much money I've smoked/spent since I was 50 (see above). Are you ready? I've smoked 20,115 fags in 2 years 9 months - I can't tell you how sick and disgusted I feel. I have spent £4,173.86 in that short time! I am so...

Any one would think we were a third world country on the equator, not a first world one sat in a temperate zone. There is plenty of water in this country, but not necesarilly in the right place. A water company in the south is quite happy to pump water (by the millions of litres) off marshland into ...

I ordered my plastic today and hope to cover it on Friday.

I have made sure that my raised beds are filled, the floor membrane is down and covered in gravel so that I dont struggle or pierce the plastic doing it after. You sound like you have covered the bases Vivianne, go for it.

I buy a large proportion of my seeds etc from Thompson & Morgan. I checked today and found out that my heat treated Red onion sets are from Holland and My sweetcorn is from Argentina. They have always performed well in the past as I presume that they do so because the original growing locations ...

Why Pig Bristle of course!

Mrs P

Malvern in the Autumn! Oh, what delights. It makes your hair curl just imagining what it will be like when we come face to face with the incredible Grock!

Mrs P

SHOUT! SHOUT! There, I've shouted at you. Not really Grock - I guess the temptation was obviously too great. To be quite honest, I think if I had gone away to camp with a load of lads, I too would have smoked my head off. None of us is perfect Grock. So you slipped up. It's not the end of the world....

silly, they`re just small oranges that are easy to peel.
