Am I deprived then?  I've never tickled a tomato in my life!   ;) :lol:
Aw GA, it was great, really felt like I was helping! :D  There was also a search for the four leaf clover on the school fields... ::)

We never did that either!  See, I missed out so much when I was younger!   ;) ;)
Aw Grans... :( and huggles  ;) :)

It is a normal part of my morning routine at this time in the year  :lol:

Very therapeutic and does them good too  :D

I have grown cboth limbing and dwarf French beans in my greenhouse for a few years now and they do brilliantly - no curled pods either!

I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Just to add to the positive comments, we've grown both dwarf and climibg french beans a few times in our polytunnel with great results. :)

I have a lovely pink feather stuck to the end of a peastick after taking advice from Auntie M.  Using it on my cukes.  Now waiting for toms so I can give them a tickle too  :tongue2:

Hello!  Yes, the cuke's are loving it, Toms are a bit slow though  :(.  Very sturdy plants but no flowers to tickle  :( You ladies are very naughty!  I didn't see the 'small french person in a tunnel' thing until you pointed it out.  Doh! Now I can't get the image out of my head!  :blink:

Didn't say anything because I do worry about my sense of humour sometimes, but now I know I'm not alone!  ::) :lol:
