Hi Mobee, If you see it again offer it a jam buttie, but watch its teeth !!! :~))

Thanks Clarice, I've had my failures as well, My first lot of runner beens ( a dwarf variety) just didn't grow well at all. :~(

Thanks all for lovely comments :~))))

I'm impressed our Ian!!!...thos veg look magnificent..I know what you mean about the peas. I have a few plants in a large pot. don't think any of them will reach the steamer.
:))))

veggies looking good Ian , have you dug up any tatties yet? also what is that in the small pots under the orange chair ? Is this another mystery Item in the digs garden ? I need to know Ian . Whats under the chair?

You might have hidden your other blog Ian but you can't hide whats in your photo's - some eagle-eyed Goyer will always spot something lol. Veg look very tasty :)

Hi all, thanks for the lovely comments :~)))))

Mac, I'm not telling.....Nerrrr. Can you guess?
Lets see who can get it first !
You've all seen them before!!!!!!!!!!! :-/

Oh yes Mac, the spuds are just delicious.

hey Ian check out angiedocherty latest photo

ps --- (its all your fault)

That is a Phalaenopsis orchid if I ever seen one !!!! and if you find it's a cabbage in 2 months then LOL !!

I can only do tomatoes Ian...but all your veg looks great! :0)

Sorry Angie its certainly not a whatever you saidopsis, its much more native than that !! :~))

Hi Fluff, I've only been growing veggies for two years and if I could only have one choice, veg or flowers, I'm sorry to say I know what would win !!!!

Nice healthy looking vegetable patch Ian. Sorry, not found your other blog. Have you phoned the police station in case sioomeone found it and handed it in?? It didn't work with my car key the other week but worth a try.
I have a veg patch at one of my customers' garden.Well it's like an allotment really. Troubl;e is, I've been so busy and tired that I've not been for two weeks although John (the owner) usually waters the patch for me. So, goodness knows what it will look like when I go tomorrow. Should be pounds and pounds of spuds to harvest as well as Peas(if they've left me any, as we share the produce) and Beetroot. Might take some pics if it's not in too much of a mess! Nice blog, it's good to see other's plots!
Paul

Hi Paul, Thanks for that, I would like to see your plot whatever state its in ! I'm more interested in the veg than the weeds :~))
By the way, how did the B. tests go? I worry sometimes when people don't get themselves sorted out. Thats how I ended up in casualty, by ignoring my symptoms. :~((

Good luck and best wishes......Ian

Thanks for your concern Ian. I went to surgery yesterday and asked re test results but they're not back yet. (I thought they would have been in 7 days)
Although I don't want to have any illness, I want the tests to show up something, as I can't carry on feeling like this without getting it treated. It's affecting everything including my work. I just feel like a Zombie with no energy all day. I sometimes struggle to say what I want to as I'm so exhausted! Still, I 'll have to wait and see!

Keep at them mate, It's important especialy as your feeling so low. you might let it slip (if you know what I mean!)

Yes, I'll try again early next week Ian.

You have great looking vegetables Ian ( unlike mine. lol )

Thanks Hywel, I do enjoy growing veg, but my flowers don't come anywhere near yours :~))

Your veggies are all coming along great Ian..... you will be eating well..........

I always do Holly, but I know what you mean :~)) I've just dug up another row of potatoes and there must be about 5-6 lb, I'm sorry but I don't know what that is in modern!! :~))

A couple of kilos, in "round figures"! Nice blog - sorry about the other one, must have gone AWL!

I have some tomatoes & strawberries growing on my balcony. A few years ago I grew spuds but they take up far too much space for too long with too little reward for my balcony.

I've already had some strawberries but the tomatoes will take a lot longer - if I get any as this year they are not doing nearly as well at this time, as photos of other years I have on my computer show!

Hi all, I weighed those spuds and there was 10.5 lb so my estimation was way off. (Still couldn't tell you what that is in modern) :~))

A rough guide is 2lbs=1kilo. This is a VERY rough guide but just between friends & only when talking in very round estimates, this is by no means meant to be taken seriously. So your 10lbs of spuds is roughly 5kilos. Just divide your lbs by 2 or multiply your kilos by 2!

Thanks Balcony, I have never been able to keep this in my head. I can never remember if its 2 kilos to the pound or the other way on. LOL :~))

wow my kind of garnening lovely blog i love veg gadening but right now not getting up to much love your photo's i'm hoping to do a bit more veggie growing myself next year onwards very nice good luck try ashow or two you might enjoy it .kev

Thanks Kev, I'm greatful for your comments but I'm nowhere near a show winner but I'm sure I could get some great tips from there. :~))

I know what would win, too, Ian, if I had to choose, but, like yourself, am on the waiting list for an allotment. Gr8-looking veggies! :-)

Cheers again David, Am I following you ?? :~))

No, Ian, you have positively overtaken me in the veggy stakes this year! :-)

No........I'm an amateur LOL
