Nah, the vines down, I asked a mod and the servers broken. Someone spilled a cup of tea on it or something

Ex-mod

However, yes, the server is down - it was supposed to be replaced yesterday so I can only assume that they are having issues with plugging it in or charging it up.

However, we have the MBE thread to keep us all amused

I need to go and buy canes saturday morning. I am really keen to get my beans & peas out into the soil, especially after all the rain.

But I have a dilemma. Football kicks off at 12.45, & my bowls match starts at 2.30. Will I have the time?

(NB I want to go for a day out on the sunday, weather depending...:cool:)

I am currently avoiding going into the garden for a couple of days in the vain hope that when I finally do, there will be shoots where I planted my damned BEETROOT AND CARROTS!:mad:

Yes. Just ignore the football. It'll be 0-0 anyway, so you'll waste 90 minutes of your life watching nothing happen. :whistle:

I'm definitely a Mr.

Football's a girls' game though. Bunch of overpaid, overrated prima-donnas poncing about shouting at the ref, or falling down crying. Bunch of handbags, the lot of 'em:



And that's just the players. The game itself is inherently dull. Like I say, you spend 90 minutes watching for it to be 0-0. Nothing's happened, yet one side's fans think it's a result and the other lot want to stab you. They can't even be trusted to have a pint in the ground. :doh:

Don't get me wrong, I love sport. Just about all of it. Sport for grown-ups though: Rugby, Aussie Rules, that sort of thing. I'll spend most of the next three weeks glued to the Giro d'Italia (and footballers think they're fit! :rotfl:). Those guys are nails. RIP Wouter Weylandt.

Oh, now I've got off my soapbox, I'd just like to remind everyone that it's a gardening thread, so it's not the place to try and defend football.

I got some leeks today from a nice lady on freecycle. Mine weren't looking too great, so this'll top them up a bit.

I've just sown three varieties of french bean. Gawd knows where I'll put them. Might have to dig up a bit more lawn.

Off 'til Sunday. Everything should be ok, but if we get a blazing couple of days will you water the tubs for me? No, not all of you. One of you will do.

Lemon, you're in charge.
