Kitchen Garden Forum

tomorrow i will be modeling me french maids outfit and cooking lots of bacon butties for the men down on the allotment.they are all getting together to put fences and barbed wire around the allotment to keep the little b****ards from setting more sheds and greenhouses on fire,we have all got together and paid £10 towards the wire we need and hopefully we will get this money back off the council,but maybe the popes not catholic

Be careful what you do. In today's wonderful society if some little scrote hangs himself off your barbed wire, you'll end up paying him compensation for trespassing. Sad but true.

Are you taking photos to post on here? French maid's outfit and all? Steady on OH.

I'm as steady as is possible, at the thought of Grock in a French maids uniform.

Tomorrow I will be spending most of the weekenld with 20 or so Junior Sea Cadets, we are having a unit weekend, which includes camping out inside our unit (quite a posh place by the way) my son is a Sea Cadet and i got 'roped in' (no pun intended) to be an instructor, so here we go!! At least we have a full weekend of activities for the little darlings and lots of Pizza and Pillowfights no doubt.

Wish me luck

Tomorrow I are mostly, checking out the tree that my mothers neighbour tells me has blown down from her garden into his garden.

I are also looking forward to selling her place now she are in a home.

we are going shopping in totnes to spend my b'day cash!i'm looking for a frieda art book
dh is working
the weather is still grim-i might have tried to brave the garden; but it's not fair taking lily out in it-she might blow away or get battered by the rain!

hope you don't get too chilly in your ann summers outfit!

Tomorrow being today - I'm launching a book of poetry I wrote (with another poet), designed and printed at Glasgow's Botanic Gardens. Pity it's blowing yet another gale up here. Won't get much passing trade.

omg how cool
what the title malk-can we purchase it?

It's bright and sunny here so I'm going to tidy up the damage left by the gales and then play (whoops - work) in my tunnels where I can pretend it's Spring.

We're still having problems with power here, as we have been since Thursday. It's not likely to be resolved much before tomorrow. It's quite humbling to see how much damage the gales did.

If any of you saw a report in the press about the MD of B'ham Airport being killed by a tree falling on his 4 X 4, that was about a mile from where I live. He was a lovely man.

Dear Malk, how about putting one of your poems on the forum now and again, i bet there would be a lot of interested people.
Have you done any about gardens or plants.

Hi Tigger I read that report and it is a small world that you knew him / of him. I still cannot get out of my head, the two year old that was crushed under a falling wall, or the number of people driving that were killed by falling trees in their cars, our continuing existence is not necessarily something we always have control of it....but whilst we are here.......let's have a good go at it, and live with grace and humility.

How right you are Compo. There but for the grace of God.........

Weather is usually a wonderful thing but it can test us from time to time.
