Having just been for a trip up the garden, in true fast show tradition, this week I will mostly be eating courgettes

[inthewoods]

just had 2nd bumper crop of spuds, 1st tomatoes are just turning red, sweet peppers coming along nicely, chillis doing nothing yet, all the srawberries are gone, carrots go in every month & come out every 2 months, perpetual spinach, celery aswell but it just looks like cress at the mo, lambs lettuce & mixed leaf lettuce oh & purple sprouting but they'e covered in caterpillars! all from seed, really want a polly tunnel !

Pots and runners from the plot and mackrel caught by me in the solent this morning.

Well proud of my 2 girls for helping at every stage without any qualms.

Nice work pat. But when you put photos of yourself up, it ruins my illusion caused by your avatar!

Bloomin did it again! Got half way through my t and realised I hadn't taken a picture.

Runners, sweetcorn, courgette roast tatties (all from the plot) and roast pork from an organic farm I shoot.Managed to strike a deal with the farmer and had 2 pigs, it worked out at less than a £1 a lb for a freezer full of pork, I kept the price low buy collecting it from the abattoir and jointing it up myself thanks to a tutorial on youtube.

 

Ill post a picture of the strawberry and apple crumble when it gets out of the oven.

Whats with the toffee crisp carton in the desert pic. Isnt everyone enjoying the good life Pat?

 

P.s no offence at the Bee question earlier. Results so far.

 

Crushed strawberry is the winner at the moment with about 20 wasps followed by crushed pear with 5 and dissolved toffee has 4.

 

Apple has been suggested as it ferments into alcohol better.

 

Still lots of wasps around and they are now raiding the compost bin.

 

The battle continues...
