I'm wondering what my parsnips will taste like now  :happy: and how the heck am I going to dig them up  :dry:

1) Parsnips!
2) JCB

 :lol: Im looking forward to digging up and trying mine, but am going to wait till Christmas, unfortunatley i dont think i'll be able to get a JCB onto the plot :( Do you think a concrete braker would do? ;)
If you want to be happy for a short time - get drunk.

If you want to be happy for a long time - fall in love.

If you want to be happy forever - take up gardening!

I'm going to pour petrol all over my parsnip bed and light it to melt the frost.

It'd trim your eyebrows and fringe too - there's a third bird etc etc etc  :ohmy:
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
