Pride comes before..........?
« on: July 09, 2005, 07:35:55 »
I was just scrubbing the last of our Colleen, for daughter's 50th today (only 20 to cater for!!), & was feeling pleased that we had had no slug damage despite the pots being the only juicy things in an area of concrete. And there it was - the only slug in 2 rows!

I imagine that, when we start the Nicola & Lady Balfour, they won't be as nicely scrubbable as these have been. But hope they'll be as slug-free.

Stick with the pride Tim, these look like a very nice of crop of spuds.  Just hope mine look as good!   By the way,  if you're ever short of slugs...........

Hi Tim,

Do pass on my best wishes to your daughter and wish her a very happy 50th from me.  :D

Your potatoes look absolutely lovely. Let's hope the slug you found was just a wanderer and that the rest of your crops won't be damaged.

Take care. Love and hugs.


EILEEN.
