what day and time is this on not spotted yet, eagerly waiting, but I do agree love the gardeners web site

The programme started off with Mike Robinson doing up an old pub The Pot Kiln and having a vegetable garden made for the pub lunches. Following that there was a programme where he was planning the menu for the pub. These were both on UKTV Food and keep getting repeated. Heavens Kitchen was the name - I think. Then another programme was made showing the making of the kitchen garden. Heavens Kitchen Garden and that is on UKTV Style Gardens. I've checked this weeks shedules and they are not on but they keep repeating them so check the shedules and eventually they will be back on.

Now, now Andrew, nothing the matter with ladies tights. If you grow all your veg in pots like wot I do tights are very useful for keeping the dreaded carrot fly at bay.

[Jaxom]

Hils, I’ve got to know. How do tights keep Carrot fly at bay? I have visions of female carrot flies going window shopping instead of laying eggs?

[andrewo]

It's either that or they're borrowing the tights and wearing them to rob banks.

They make good ties as well as they don't cut into the stems as all ladies will tell you Andrew If you grow Gladioli they are good for storing the corms in as you can keep the varieties seperat and hang them over a nail using the .. er.. Middle bit (you never know who reads these posts )

Surely a hobby is about enjoying yourself?
Not had a chance to see the allotment program yet!... hectic few days!! Good news is that I've got it recorded, so can make notes.(gooseberry drink sounds worthwhile then??)

[andrewo]

Oh yes the gooseberry drink is very nice.
