hooray, back on the allotment at last!
« on: December 22, 2010, 16:42 »
I popped there today given the amount of thaw we have had and joy of joys I was able to pull up some veg for tea tonight, and a load ready for the next few days. Even the King Edwards that were still in the ground were fine but this year I at least had the foresight to cover them with fleece at the start of the month.

And even more miraculously, I was able to pick salad leaves and rocket (my favourite) from the greenhouse - I had all but given up hope on them!

Lucky you. I can;t wait to properly get back to the allotment. I've been over a few times in the last month but it's covered in snow at the moment. Roll on Spring!

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!
