And the same to you, Alan, and a good day length to start my holiday ....off in a little while.....

Its a great time of the year, we have summer to lookforward to while everything is still fresh

How can you leave your lottie his time of the year OH? so much to do even if it is only weeding and harvesting.

Enjoy your holiday though I am sure you deserve it.

Well I won't dampen anybody's enthusiasm by saying that from now on the days start to get shorter again.
What nice weather for your holiday OH !
The weeds will be having fun and games in your absence and you can burn off all those extra holidays calories digging them up on your return.

Happy Summer Solstice Everyone! I overcome the urge to go to Stonehenge!

Enjoy your holiday OH! I've just had the last 2 weeks off & had beautiful weather so hoping it lasts for you too!

I am having a very lonely week over the Lottie this week with out OH,but the blackbirds are having a lovely time eating all his strawberries.

Fibber! YOU are eating all his strawberries and when he comes back you are going to blame the blackbirds!,

Beryl.

Sorry primrose I would love to eat them , but my stomach problem won't let me eat them I would really suffer the next day.

Well i'm back from a most wonderful holiday, we had dry weather everday and it just rained once one night. But here, back at Milton Bryant, it is now chucking it down.....

At the back of the house where we stayed in Broadstairs, was the most charming little allotment site, (six plots maybe). Anyway, i went and had a chat with three of the plot holders, and what wonderful people they were too.... so if you do pop onto the forum, Stanley, Christine, or the other lovely lady that i have very rudely forgot your name, well, just a big thank you for the lovely chat and offer of plants and raspberries.

I went to the, Secret gardens in Sandwhich, and i hate to say it, but i was really disappointed, no neatly edged lawns, big gaps in the borders and lots of weeds. There are three gardeners so it's not as if it is understaffed. A nd when aked why the tearoom wasn't open, we were just told, they open when they feel like it. So since this garden has been on the television i thought it rather a bad show...

But all in all, a wonderful holiday.

Welcome back OH,
Glad to read that you had a lovely holiday.

I expect your be busy now catching up.......

You could do without the rain though

Dear Donedigging, thank you for your kind words.

Regarding the catching up, i must admit everything doesn't look too bad, but i did work really hard to weed everything before i went, so i think that has really paid off. I'll be busy harvesting lots of things tomorrow though....

Welcome back OH! Let's hope your new friends pop on & chat! No offence to you great guys on here but it would be nice to get more visitors!
