I think I have been bitten by the gardening bug, for 50 years of my life I found the whole story one big yawn, and even strongly declared to my father that I would never be able to get into it. But here I am, fascinated by the whole shebang, I even enjoy the messy stuff, (just got back from a smallholding after bagging up a good load of cow manure, and piling it in the back of my van). I can now understand how you folks who really know the ins and outs, go for the challenging side of growing, as well as the easy stuff like I have this year.
