General Chat

and Dizzi :-(

Oh Hello Island, Darlink, Now I have had this conversation with Wend., booked since last Sunday.
Now, I dont' want to start an ugly rumour, but I think she has run off with somebody. I wonder who else is missing from the boards, apart from Pickles and Mersey, that is. LOLOL

*cups ear* sorry I thought I heard a tut. ;-) :-D

Sorry Julia, internet went up the spout. So annoying, because I knew you were off at 6.30 ish for kitchen duties, but couldn't make it. Tatty talk tomorrow! :-D

Speaks to you later then Wend. Looking forward to it.

Morning Julia - sorry I didn't come back to you yesterday. My fireman turned up for the day to do a few odd jobs and I was rather preoccupied ;-)

Have to go out for a while now, but I will back later for an 'allotment chat', although I'm very much a novice as far as veggies go. I've been trying to decide which tatties to go for this year - perhaps you can advise me?

im in angelsey wend,
we are having quite hard frosts here now,and since i only have 1day off a wk,it will be a while before i can get out and sort my veg. :-D

Go on, Suzanne, you can do it - turn those clods to get them frosted - works wonders!!

Saddo Wend x

PS Which area of the country are you in, Suzanne?

ive got nothing growing in my veg garden,it looks very unkept at the moment,but its far to cold here to start digging.maybe next wk. :-D

George, don't be cheeky - you know I'm teetotal!

*has another sip of water with ice n lemon - :-D :-D :-D

Been up the pub....LOL :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

George :-) :-) :-)

Sorry, Julia, only just spotted this. I was out n about this afternoon, but will reply more fully tomorrow. :-)

I was just thinking of you as I was preparing some Brussels for tonights meal. I saw you say you were down on your allotment the other day. Have you got anything in it, or is it a blank canvas, at this time of the year.
We, just have a few Cabbages, Parsnips, and Brussels.
The OH had a steady walk down yesterday, for the exercise,and got the Brussels. He said that a new couple had taken up a plot near his, and the were there digging yesterday, and today, when he went to fetch the papers and me baccy. Must be keen to want to be out digging in this weather. It is so cold I would not turn my dog out in it.
Are you growing anything new this year. We have one or two new things on the list, which I cannot find at the moment, and different types of tomatoes. Are you indoor or outdoor with them. I do both, but up at the house, not on the allotment.
I am hoping to create a couple of Living Salad Bars up at the house for convenience, for those days that get to tea-time, and you think you could not eat a load of veggies with your meat, and would prefer some salad instead.

Look forward to hearing from you
