Yo peeps

This evening I harvested my first ever veg seeds for planting next year,  I took 6 runner beans that I had left to go paper brown, and the crispiness as I slit the pod open and I swear I felt joy when seeing the seeds.... "still giving" is what I thought,  I got 42 seeds  did from just 6 pods and theres loads more to come,  gotta be careful about how many wiggy wams I put up on me allotment,  dont want custer and his..... hey up beginning to babble... whats Custer got to do wiv me seeds?...?

Anyway all in all the experience

Let the games begin!  Now all you have to do is remember where you put them so you aren't tearing the house to bits looking for them next Spring!  As you can tell......this is my usual trick - collect the seeds, stick them in envelope, forget to label and put it somewhere really really safe never to be seen again!  ;D

All those things one cannot find are in the Virtual Shed. This has an extra dimension, outside of the normal Time/space continum-um-um-um thingy. I have a whole tool box of tools which live permanently in cyber space only appearing when they are not required. And what is even more odd is that if my wife or daughters go to look for a particular tool they ALWAYS find it, especially after I have turned the shed upside down and failed.
On a lighter note, wherever you keep your seeds remember it needs to be cool and dry and vermin resistant.

The other day I found one of Annie's (empty) poop bags with a load of bean seeds in it.   I cannot remember who gave them to me, or when.   Whether it was recently, or some time, perhaps a year or two, ago.   I have no idea what type of beans they are either.   I guess the only way to find out is to plant them into pots next year, and, hopefully be surprised if anything comes up.

Congrats to you Ozzy for saving some beans to plant next year.    I ate all mine - piggy wiggy that I am - I like food.

BTW it was Jack that climber the beanstalk, and Dick became Lord Mayor of London like Ken.

Ozzy, would you PLEASE stop babbling in yellow on a grey background, `cos it`s giving me eyestrain trying to read it!  Otherwise, keep on babbling.

But Hugh, he's not - surely he's babbling in yellow on a blue background?
