That's disappointing Mr. Plasma  - I like growing new things, and was going to rush off  to LIDL's to get some friuts. :D

Hi Guys,

Just recovering from apple overload at ken muir, tasted over 30 apples and managed to get one of the 4 apples i wanted to buy. I also picked up my asian pear :-) just have to plant them!

The apple i got was Kidds Orange Red, the other ones i was after and will have to order are Pixie, Gala and i am still trying to decide on the last but it will probably be bardsey. I could not fit any more in the car so i decided to just get the one i wanted most :-)

Because there was 20% discounts on their trees i also picked up my boysenberry plant and it was effectivly free with the money i saved on the trees.

So today i need to plant the pear and apple ( these are going in the back garden the other apples are going on the allotment.

I have having a look at my notes about the other fruits i wanted and you might be intrested in knowing that Thompson and Morgan do a full season collection of 9 canes for £14.99 ( 3 each of glen ample, glen moy and autumn bliss )
