Oh and by the way - last year I had huge success with my parsnips in paper pots.  This year put them straight in the ground and not been nearly as good. So back to paper pots next year!

I always like a good nosey round, and great to hear from you Richy  :D
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Thanks everyone :)
I need to add a few bean supports on the left hand bed's I'm hoping they'll create a little shade for the beds as they get sun till about 3 in the afternoon.

I'll give credit to my lovely wife for the inspiration and planning idea.

Glad to hear Nessie Jnr is doing well DD.

I think Richy should be awarded a cup for his achievements in the face of obvious adversity (fashioned from paper, of course, and preferably gilded!)  :)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Nothing wrong with a good nosey  ;) I love the piccies of what everyone else is up to as well.

Looks great Richy - what a great use of space.  I've never found 3 sisters work that well either as the courgettes or squash trample everything in their path, so I just do sweetcorn and climbing beans now and plant a few nasturtiums round the base to keep the weeds down.

Hi Richy, nice to have you back.
The plot looks lovely, and so tidy (unlike mine!)
