Title: There's good new and there's bad
Post by: Digeroo on May 31, 2010, 15:47:11
The good news is that my Goji berries are flowering the bad news is that there are only three blooms.

The good news is that my main crop carrots are coming through the bad news is that some dog with huge paws has walked all over them.


The good news is that my overwintering Feltham First peas are producing peas the bad news is that they forget to queue up in the taste department.  They remind me of the awful peas that we had at school when I was young.

some times gardening is like standing in a bucket of S***e the only thing that varies is the depth.

It was meant to be funny.  I thought that perhaps other people had some more examples.

I certainly know how you feel, nothing much gone wrong for me yet but there is time but a couple of year back when i got a load of contaminated manure it did, my tomatoes all went what in fact up my Caspian just withered away my show leeks only made the compost heap the only thing that came good were the chilly peppers and i hate them
