Rained for a couple of minutes and now it's brightening up Nicos! Oh well, laters maybe

[Thelma Sanders]

Evening all!
Been grey but warm all day, got a lot of hoeing done on the plot plus all the watering - will it ever rain? Forecast keeps saying showers, but they always seem to miss here or last just 20 seconds
Have a nice evening

Well the "Gardeners Question Time" went well at the local Nursery/Garden Centre today, I was in some illustrious company with a retired Horticultural lecturer and a Professional Gardener who had worked a lot of Royal gardens including Buckingham Palace, but they were the flower "experts" and I was the "veggie man". We had some good questions and everyone learnt something from each other, typical gardening really. Back to reality with cutting the grass once it stops raining.

[Nicos]

Well done Burnie!
Can I please have your autograph now?

[rary]

Yes well done burnie, pity you stay so far away as I would have came along to hear the talk, but like Nicos could I have your autograph I will send you a blank piece of paper, just sign it in the bottom toward the left hand corner

[Nicos]

Having just checked up on the pegbogs I noticed it's nearly a full moon outside.
The garden is really well illuminated...bit spooky really
I notice Jupiter and Saturn are nearby too and really bright!
If you have clear skies and are awake at stupido'clock.fr/uk take a look to the south.

Morning all, lovely day here. I too woke up at silly o’clock and then laid in till gone nine.
Half the flipping days gone.

Going to a family bbq this afternoon. Back on my diet, so taking salad and fruit salad, praying that I don’t cave in
Have a fantastic Sunday folks

[bramble]

Good morning all.
Full Irish for us so no need for as tray today thanks Nicos.
Off to mass shortly and then family visiting.
Have a good day all.

[Nicos]

Ha!... having read your post Burnie, I've just made pancakes served with yog and raspberries from the garden.
Thought I'd play with ingredients so used oats instead of flour, sheeps milk,egg yolk and whipped egg white and banana.
Really nice! Will deffo make them again.
(Just needed bacon and maple syrup)

[Nicos]

My diet starts next Monday NS!
Just cutting down again this coming week, and no more booze.
Hoping to lose a stone!
Good luck with yours....I know you can do it

[Snoop Puss]

All this talk of diets... Making me feel very guilty.

Didn't drop in yesterday: went out plus internet playing up. Anyway, good day yesterday. Bought loads of bits for the irrigation system. Really hope it works. Fed up with hauling watering cans about and my back is giving me gyp.

Tied up half my toms before rain started. Yes, proper rain! Not a massive amount, but might not need to water tonight. Very embarrassed to admit that I had to cut off almost as much plant in overgrown armpits as I left growing. Should have done it earlier, but there you go. Squash out of control. On the spiralising veg thread currently on the go, someone mentions growing spaghetti squash and they roamed far and wide. I've got four. And the Confection are even bigger. Definitely going to need a patch of their own next year. Oh, and I've hand pollinated a few melons.

So, that's Sunday morning done here. Hope you're all having a great time. Catch you later.

Popping in to say hello, hope you are all well. Will catch up later.
