any one watching victorian kitchen garden on freeview channel 12 ?
Got the DVD Jim. Brilliant series ;).
tried to and the freeview signal went :(
can't find when the next one is on ???
wouldn't mind, I've seen it several times but still find it great, also, beechgrove gardens was on on thursday (BBC Scotland), that was brilliant ;D
OH treated me for my birthday a couple of years ago to the boxed set. The Victorian Kitchen Garden, The Victorian Flower Garden and the Victorian Kitchen.
Takes me back to gran and grandad-land, Gran was a cook in service, and grandad was a gardener (ornamental aka flower garden).
I have some of grandad's gardening books. Three volumes of both the Flower Growers and Fruit Growers Guides, and his A-Z volumes of The Dictionary of Gardening. They are just over 100 years old. Fascinating reading.
Sadly I have none of gran's recipes. I was only nine when she died, and was too young to appreciate her cooking.
