Title: Blogs
Post by: jo9919 on June 13, 2008, 16:22:28
I have just found Georgie's blog today, Little London Garden, and a good read it was too.

I follow new posts on a number of A4A member's blogs, including Glosterwomble's 'Fork It', and Stevepartridge's 'My Allotments'. ChrisG regularly updates his blog with new photo's from his 'Veggie Plot'.

Does anyone else follow any particular blog which they find useful and informative?

Jo.

I'm very impressed as to how you remember all the Latin names. I always go by the common names (commoner that I am  :P)

I'm waiting on the next update about your tadpoles now  :)

LOL I cheat - I have them all written down!  But I am getting better (oh yes I am, Eric).   ;D

The tadpoles have gone camera shy but I'll see what I can do tomorrow.   :)

Glad you like it Jo, thanks for the mention.  ;D

I follow several blogs but 2 of my favourites are both local to me
Growing Our Own (Gloucester) http://www.growingourown.co.uk/ 
Veg Monkey and the Mrs. (Cheltenham) http://vegmonkey.co.uk/

I do love blogs, it feels like your almost spying on someones activities and I get some brilliant ideas and inspiration from them.

I've been checking out both of the links today. When my hubby asks why the housework isn't done I'll blame you GW  ;D. Both blogs you mentioned are a really good read.

Forgot to add, I also keep track of Emma Jane's blog (really good) and also Mrs KP's Plot and Lottie blog, although she's gone fairly quiet, and I haven't seen her on here for an age. I do hope she's OK.
