One of Mrs.BB's favourites when on holiday Vicky, it's the fruit of the cherimoya, soft pulp tastes a bit of vanilla & mango, seeds will be with VC next week I think 5 per pack should give a reasonable chance of getting a plant or two for anyone who fancies a try at something a bit different

ooh VC you might have to reserve me some - I have some to send to you when I have chance to sort them out on Wednesday.

Will they grow in the chilly north BB?

Evening all. Seemed to of been busy all day dashing here there and everywhere. Been to allotment and managed to lay one new path and nearly finish another. Have used slabs from an area that had slabs on but were taking up to much room. My back and arms ache rather a lot now. Need to go down and try and finish off tomorrow. Just hope I have enough slabs to finish off.
Have a good evening everyone

There are 32 packets of 5 seeds so I doubt they'll dissappear to quickly

Not sure how far north they grow Vicky, probably be good idea to start it as a pot plant in a conservatory if possible, but never say never my loony neighbour grew a banana tree to 7feet high outdoors

10 ish for toms?
I adore custard apples so I'll have a bash at growing some. Thanks BB

will get on bagging up during evenings & post out by the weekend, already done the custard apples will get on the tom's now

Its good to have a hobby, BB. Makes the long dark evenings pass so much more quickly - especially with a glass at your side

Good evening Folks, been a mixed day here today some showers this morning, but managed to walk doughters dog without getting wet but a very cold wind blowing, and was back home just in time for a box of wine being delivered, that will do me for some months, due to extream moaning was forced to lay a carpet, was told I would get something for my eforts, she was right my legs are agony, collected grandsons from school and as usual rain started as the school came out but not long or heavy, was in the greenhouse potting on, I am now realy struggling for space, cant put anything out as its to cold, will make up more baskets, and see if that helps. Well I wish you all a good night , and hope tomorrow can do the same as Jay and jist footer aboot. Goodnight

C gardener,not all mother in laws are to be dodged,they could be your best friend if you let them in

Absolutely . My OHs mil (my mum ) loves him as much as me and my brothers.
Mil doesn't think much of her only son let alone me. She comes to stay to fill her social calendar I'm afraid .
Difficult .

Morning all.

Jay, you wouldn't believe we live in the same country. we have shiney up here and a stiff breeze so I have a line of towels out .

Mind you, I was geared up to go do a grasscutting job earlier, it looked lovely and dry and then the heavens opened and everything was drenched in a few minutes . Hopefully it will dry up and I will get to it later in the day

Well the towels came in dry. I spent a few hours swapping the engine off an old sabo mower onto a john deere. The sabo was old but the engine wasn't and the engine on the JD was a sod to start after it was hot. Had to change the drive belt as well as it was perished and when I was finished, the replacement engine worked great but the mower was driving at low speed. Did my intended morning job with it but it was pedantic. I must have the belt round the jockey wheels wrong or summat else simple. I'll find out tomorrow what I did that was dopey

[Jay22]

^^^^im beginning to think you are Superman in disguise...where do you get the time to do all this stuff!

[Aberdeenplotter]

Its wearing my underpants outside my trousers that does it

[Jay22]

That made me LOL!

[veggiechicken]

You mean you forgot to put them on this morning, until later

Anyways, the chooks are out so I'm heading off back to my nest for some more beauty sleep.............have a good one if I don't see you before.
