Title: God closes a door and opens a window!!
Post by: Jeannine on July 11, 2010, 05:16:10
After all my moaning about getting a lottie late and having no space.

My lottie neighbours with a huge amount of ground  that is loaded with maturing veggies  that won't keep have gone to Jamaica for a while and guess who is  watering etc.

and there was me thinking I would not  get much harvest this year ....

Thank you

I offered to freeze the peas which are just on the point of being ready but they said no, just go ahead and use them, they have all kinds of salad leaves  that I don't know, I do know that many of their seeds were  brought from home..home being Russia. There is some sorrel which I have never grown, I ate a leaf yesterday and it was really good. Lots of spuds  but they will wait, too soon for the grapesvines..drat!! It is mostly salad stuff, peas, beans nearly getting there. Actually I am just happy to be able to float around a big garden and pretend it is mine for a while. The peas will be  a treat though!!!

I am sure you will float very glamorously. They obviously know quality when they see/meet it :). Enjoy.
