What are you looking forward to?

[Samwise]

i am looking forward to (hopefully) successfully growing my first ever cucumber plant, looking good so far!

[TonyF]

Ummmmmm, not too sure but here goes ..........

1) Being well enough to get right through the spring/summer/autumn without having to stop gardening
2) Deciding whether to restart the business or not
3) Finishing the hedges round the house - front hedge is over 100 feet long, sides are longer and they need cutting/pruning
4) Organising the new potager for my chums in the village
5) Getting my seeds started when I come back from Bordeaux next week
6) Planting out
7) Spring, summer and autumn in the Dordogne, sitting out on the terrace to eat
8) Opening the shutters or curtains every morning and looking across the valley to the village, brilliant start to every day no matter now crappy the weather is

It`s nice to see everyone is getting as excited as me about the upcoming gardening year.
Could it be the nice weather we`ve been having?

Doubt it . I'm still at home . Leaving this morning at 08.00 for the sailing from Larne at 12.00 to berth in Fleetwood on Friday night at 20.00. Then a quick drive to Launceston in Cornwall with my load and then back to Nuneaton for a backload . 9 hours in bed and then back up the M6 to Stranraer / Carnryan for a boat home early Sunday morning.

I shall insist he wears his England shirt for the day

[Eyren]

This year I shall be mostly lookin' forward to:

Short term
* W/c 9th March - my annual "week off to get the allotment going again"
* "Watchmen" movie - read the graphic novel when it first came out, so I've been waiting a loo-ong time for a movie adaptation
* Trip to the local Loch Fyne for my birthday!
* Switching on my new heated propagator and sowing toms, chillies, etc

Long term
* The next Harry Potter movie
* Finally getting the lottie under control and into something resembling full production
* A couple of loans drawing to an end, which means more cash in my pocket (or at least helping to pay off my credit cards)

[Herbie]

I am looking forward to seeing everything come back into growth. Seeing how new varieties and HSL varieties perform. Sharing and saving seed. A good summer, Easter and Easter eggs (preferably cadburys buttons lol), summer friut, seeing the garden in all its glory, sat on the garden swing with a good book and a large glass of vino (heaven).
And perhaps a week in Cornwall.
