Good morning :hello:
I got a daft thought yesterday was today...
I watched the cycling, oh, what about that Spanish bloke who won the stage, I was hoarse calling him home....
after the cycling, I looked up todays telly...
lack of beer, I reckon:whistle:
Owdo
You returning that thought as it were faulty, or hanging on to it?
Well I can say if 100% certainty that it's today today. Neither yesterday or tomorrow, hope you're not disappointed.
A little hoarse, how's it today. Somehow I get the feeling he wouldn't have heard you.
Not much on.
This lack of beer, you or them...

Fell out bed earlyish..
I do the sunflowers for the family....)
ours never were happy but we did get smiley faces on the four of them....
It'll be sweet peas (got plenty cut flowers but funny year for them), asters, nicotiana (i picked a cheapo tray of six plants at 99p as they looked sad) and they fair put on a show in pots...
I'm being 'encouraged 'to bring on my own beetroot plants and not use commercial seedlings again.
Toodles fair enjoyed the pod peas so more planned.
No spuds, youngest has had tremendous results (I buy the seed pots too:laugh:)
I did buy begonias, trailing lobelia and french marigolds and they put on a good show...
I've one dwarf pepper plant with small fruit (approx 12 peppers(?) sitting on the windowsill in Bob's room.
Might try toms again (but don't tell Mrs M)
T'was yourself making that racket, and meself trying to get to sleep.
Maybe yours weren't pleased at being separated from the others. That smile down to yer green finger's.
Having read that list I can only say what would you be growing if you had a garden!! You could throw it open to the public...
Who's "encouraging" you, can you afford to not be encouraged by their words.
She might want to see what else you can do.
Youngest not been round to show you theirs, given you did start them off.
This pepper plant thriving in Bobs Room, or plodding along.
Yer secret is safe.

Encouraging me?

I'm just pissed at everything basically going to seed....nothing pickled this year..
must have a look for beetroot.

Plant is doing fine, might harvest the peppers for fajitas...
the only success :okay:
I'd got three plants, woke up one morning and one had lost all its green bits, leaves lying in the pot, the second has never flowered, my almost neglected one 'worked'

Been a long day..

But yer giving them all yer good stuff. Why wouldn't they encourage you...
Maybe you've spread yerself too thin this year. Or maybe you've losing yer magic touch. Toodles taking it from you!
Nothing pickled! You growing onions as well?
Pickled or unpickled variety?

One out of the three isn't too bad. Is it?

And it'll soon be over...

Saves them the time and hassle and old Bob has that in plenty (I hope)

Nah, haven't bothered with onions, they never seem to grow for me.
Been out for a wee drive,

Might save them time, but they'll have a hard time learning how to do it. You've plenty of time to pass yer skills on to them
Have a look around, you might come across it again.
You'll get some, never fear.
Tried a smaller onion?
You driving!!
Get anything on yer travels

Wondered what had happenned

Get? nobody wants to know :laugh:
I have to say all the kids (and grandkids) are doing their own thing garden and veg wise.
Beag won the family sunflower prize for '24,
youngest child is gifted, potatoes, tomatoes and apples..
very small garden too. All containers.
They all are but she is so consistent.
My problem more likely is too much time at it, although with covid etc, I've done very little in the last 7 weeks...
Early night needed

That'd be not a lot then.
Would they manage without you starting things off for them though. Youngest two aside...
Didn't take it in to his new school did he?
And you feel that you've passed yer prime, now they're beating you in the sunflower competition.
She planted and left them to their own devices, you were feeding yours night and day, rain or not.
You feeling better since you tested negative? Hope so, and things improve further still.
Early night for what though...

It's left to me...
I don't mind, as it gives me something to do..
Nah, it ended up a couple of meters high.
I can't be seen to be winning it, can I?

Still not up to speed, finishing second lot of antibiotics today, last one was for elephants I think, knocking seven bells out of me.
I'll see how I feel after it..
still something not right...

Sleep, of course...

That's part of the challenge though. Getting them growing from scratch.
You need something to do! Aren't you doing enough as it is.
Metres! Ow'd you manage to water the head, step ladder or cherry picker?
Put yourself in front, give them some real competition.

Don't often see herds of elephants wandering round Scotland. Not the liquid version, can't have drunken elephants wandering round the streets.
Better than you do at present with a wee bit of luck
Dehydration, in one of yer wettest summers this century.

You going back to bed.

Nah, been up since...

I'm doing sweet peas as well to anyone who wants..
been a rotten year for them but still getting some flowers,
been neglecting them though.
Think I may plant outside too early....
My figures have :
2024 - 1078.3 mm
2023 - 1598 mm (to 5/09/23)
Some places are bucking the trend......
