  • Bank Job in pictures

    No not a hold up, the bank to the left of my plot. Taken a number of weeks but today my new pumpkin bed emerged.

    Brief history in pictures below

    In the begining



    After a haircut last March



    Time to tackle the mess



    Some proved a little stubborn



    At last all the stumps are out



    Meet my pumpkin bed on the next post

      Looks like a lot of hard work. How did you get permission to extend your plot?

          Technically I didn't need to Wendy, the boundary of my plot runs to the road on the site plan. The council are also pretty laid back as long as I haven't encroached on someone else. I did check first though

              I can see you going on your summer holiday and you come back to the vines across the road. Looks good

                  That's brilliant. So what varieties of pumpkin you growing in your new bed?

                    Wot Lumpy said!

                    I'm seriously impressed though! I've seen pics of that last big root coming out but hadn't realised you did a full bed of them It certainly knocks that big 9-inch long lupin root from yesterday to size!

                    You deserve a Grafters Medal for the sheer work...it looks FANTASTIC! Here's to a perfect pumpkin-growing summer

                              Good neighbours Lottie, plus I am still 4' from the road. Think I have decided on:

                              Crown Prince
                              Jack be Little
                              Autumn Prince
                              Pattipan

                              Don't even know if I like squashes
