    wow. I'd love to grow potatoes and garlic - I am almost a complete beginner it has to be said and have already taken over part of the communal garden with pots :rotfl:.
    Some people seem to have had success with tomatoes but some haven't this year. I guess next year I'll get strawberries and tomatoes won't do so well. Who knows.
    How are you growing them? pots/grow bags/in the ground?

    Gemmzie do you mean job applications or benefit applications?

    df

    Pots - I don't have any beds, just a paved backyard area which I've taken over too :D I'm more or less a beginner too - started a few years ago with herbs and progressed from there.

    I didn't. The meeting was this morning, but I was convinced it was the same time as last week, 4. I phoned up as soon as I realised and asked for another appointment. I'm so angry with myself that I've done it this week of all weeks. Hopefully the email I sent yesterday will get through to him.

    DF - all sounds terribly horticultural to me!!! I'm well impressed!

    Plans for this evening are take Erin to football training, do 4 mile run (at least, and i'm not letting myself off with less) and go home to watch/listen to Celtic Arsenal match......

    sounds pretty good to me!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    sounds good - we'll be taking over the world soon with all our growing!:rotfl:. Between us we have a good range going. I know some others on here have an allotment.

    I'm worn out thinking about it all. Have fun with it.

    Is your 'view' menu still showing? Might be something under toolbars? Not used Outlook for a while so can't remember :o

    Hehe - I'd love to be closer to self-sufficient but not easy with only a little space!
