Only just got arond to it. Very inspiring about our sort of gardening.
Only thing that bugs me is Terence Conran (sorry SIR T!) smugly lording it over his bug-free cabbage patch. How does he keep them like that without protection. Or something worse.??
-
Yep Tim, not a holey leaf in sight ??? Not believing it's been achieved without.......what? hmmm, think we should be told!
btw Tim, Do the Sat & Sun DT have the same magazine, do you know? I never seen the Sun one, but that's in my yesterday's mag.

Oooops!! Said I was catching up!!
And see the Guardian Weekend for good sounding recipes for the cu glut.

lol about catching up....I'm still catching up with all the Sat. supplements Wednesday night - before the paper collection on Thursday. Which is why I don't get a Sunday paper!....gotta rely on you to post the best of the cu recipes - know you won't let me down :-* just taking a breather before the next glut arrives.....poss a week? Still, have found 3 peeps who're going to be grateful for a cu or two......but then there's 3, 4,5,6,7 & on & on to deal with :o SO thrilled with my cucs. !st year of growing, imagine that? I'd always thought they were greenhouse plants.....wrong there, then, for starters.....

The way to get an impressive bug-free cabbage patch is surely to keep it covered, then whip the covering off just before the photographer arrives!

Let you down, Lishka??
Untried - in fact, barely read! But they sounded hopeful?

Cucumber goes really well in a stirfry, if you want to use it up.

I cracked open the first jar of the cu relish that TIm recommended from Delia last week.
We now have half a jar left ;D ;D :o
Think I shall be making more *very* soon...
