A fine part of the world Manics  ;D

BTW - my spuds (the leaves) are being munched by snails  :-X I've no idea whether any spuds will survive it. memo to self, if I try this again next year, don't grow them in the garden !

[manicscousers]

near worthing  ;D
looking forward to taking spuds to my down there family  ;D

[cornykev]

Be careful if you go to Hastings, my mate Harry went there once, minding his own buisness and some bugger had his eye out.  :o

[cornykev]

Spuds, I knew there was something else, firkled mine Saturday and there was some decent sized ones, may have a few out tonight.  ;D ;D ;D

[cornykev]

I've just dug up one plant and have a meal for two tomorrow.  :-X

[1066]

LOL at you and your mate Harry, Kev  :D

Maybe I should have a firkle?

[Barkie]

4 of my Arran Pilot have buds and the other is still thinking about flowering.

I also have a Pink Fir Apple or Charlotte volunteer which got missed in the upheaval of reconstructing the garden so it'll be interesting to see what Mother Nature has given me as a bonus  :)

[manicscousers]

There we are, not a big haul but, not watered much either  ;D

[cornykev]

Dig up date is this weekend folks, although some have been a bit impatient, my excuse was my plant on the end had wind damage so I dug it up, well that was my excuse and I'm sticking to it.    :-X     ;D

[cornykev]

Well any joy.    ;D

[1066]

will be doing ours on Tuesday will have camera at the ready  :D

[Ellen K]

Lifted one root of Lady C on Wednesday and a second on Thursday; in each case plenty for a meal for the two of us. And now it's starting to rain, which should do the rest of them a power of good.

Sorry - no photos. I must remember to pay Dan again.

Hugely busy weekend (I'm on a coffee break) while it is dry here but my other half is away from tomorrow so they can stay where they are. I emptied a small pot midweek though and there was enough for a meal for the two of us which is good considering I've not been able to give them much attention.
