planting potatoes
« on: March 29, 2008, 11:22:11 »
I got to my allotment at 8.30 and planted 2 rows of "ulster sceptre". The ground was ideal, I have waited all week ! ;D ;D  back home for a bacon sarny before it rains!

I hate bacon sarnies
When God blesses you with a multitude of seeds double  the blessing by sharing your  seeds with other folks.
