      I may pop into the Chesterfield Potato shop for something for my main crop not sure yet, one of the guys behind it has a plot near mine.

                Today have bought rocket ,nadine , charlotte and two pink fir apple (just to try)......We have a man on the market who has lots of different varieties and sells you as many or as little as you want. He's not very impressed with the fir apples as he says they are a bit of an acquired taste that's why I only bought two ..........

                  Definitely Anya as they were delicious last year. On a related subject is it OK to grow in potato bags using solely well rotted manure or should I mix it a bit with compost/topsoil, as I have an abundant supply of weel rotted horse manure?

                              Rocket and Sharpes Express for the first time ever this year instead of Orla and then hopefully followed by Charlotte and Kestrel which were great last year and then Sante as a trial maincrop - our choice of potatoes, bar the earlies has a distinct white eelworm resistance theme to it, if all goes to plan
                              Jiving on down to the beach to see the blue and the gray, seems to be all and it's rosy-it's a beautiful day!
