Kitchen Garden Forum

the damp that was arround yesterday has gone and it doesnt feel as cold... no ice on the roads and almost blue skys... not too bad really ...

Seed and Potato order for work done this afternoon.....I often do that in January.....
....feels like it is January though..

Clive.

Had a lovely '5km Santa Fun Run' today - there must have been hundreds of us, very confusing for all the children on the route round town. My daughter and I did it as a 'power walk' in about 45 minutes (it did include quite a few ups as well as downs), and the sun shone and lots of people contributed to charity.

And now it's snowing hard!

I sent my potato order off the other day, am trying JBA seed potato suppliers this year, he was the fellow that was on the forum a while back.

Dear Monika, you deserve a big hug for doing the run and supporting the charity.

I think yourself and eveyone else that give their time for charities are the real people of this world.

First cancelled fixture of the rugby season today, cancelled yesterday midafternoon and the ice I took off the trailer cover around noon Saturday is still on the drive!

A touch fresh out there this morning as i was wandering about in my dressing gown.

Eavening Old Codger, nice to see you on here.

You couldn't pop over and cover my emerging broad beans for me, could you.

And bad news i have to report i'm afraid, the deer was over the allotments this morning while i was over there in the dark.

is the dressing gown that bad its not allowed out in daylight?

You still haven't changed the thread title.

Morning Richard, just imagine Scrooge in his nightgown.

Morning Geoff, i was hoping the weather would change first, but maybe a Moderator could change it to, the worst Winter for ages bits and bobs.

Just taken delivery of four plum trees and a standard rose that i had ordered, think i will be putting them in large pots in the greenhose for now.

I'm in trouble with cook.
We just had a game of eye-spy, something we haven't done for years, everything was going well until it was cook's turn, and it was something begining with, D, i said dust, probably not one of my best answers.

..and what was I doing in lieu of work this morning....Dusting.

..and the jars of Pickled Shallots have escalated to 3 now...

Clive.

...whoops. ...Dusting is of course work...real work. .

Evening Clive, quite a production line for the shallots.

You did well to say dusting is real work, i could see a stoning on the cards.

Oh dear, not good. Will you be needing food parcels for a while?
