A cool and considered choice, jda. The progress of Gimme's running this spring really deserves celebrating all round!

There have been some right little pearlers this weekend. I dunno, everyone has STEPPED UP* to the challenge.
And it really is spring now - let's make the most of this last glorious week with its additional freedoms starting tomorrow. Get outside!
*least favourite description of changing race distances but used appropriately here I wager.

You aren't getting all emotional about your ''child'' are you Sharkie?
Good choice Jda.
I am newting again as I am eating the first purple sprouting broccoli of the season. I better eat some every day, as, when I planted it last year, I was still supplying to the village shop but sadly, they banned me because they don't agree with my planning application... So, I have loads and loads! Suppose it can be frozen. Hmmm... and given to friends

Be prepared as it takes about 12-14 months for it to produce! First time I grew it I was very disappointed, as I didn't know this. I decided to keep the plants going over winter, for their leaves, which I ate, then lo and behold the purple sprouts appeared as well! Such a good value plant... I leave it for the butterflies/caterpillars in summer too, it tends to fully recover come winter for greens and then around this time: sproutings

I roasted a chicken yesterday. It was admittedly a pre-prepared, satinatray sealedinabag chicken, but still.
