Hi US, I've never had to pollinate them, they will have flowers and shortly after you will see the pods forming
It's been really quite cold here today but we have done quite a lot of work in the garden. Peas and mange tout are going mad:)
Car all packed up for car boot sale tomorrow morning - plans have changed and I'm getting up with Mr T - I'm actually quite looking forward to it (not getting up but the sale itself :rotfl:). Float ready, carrier bags, coat hangers for a few clothes.

Good luck :TA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Hiya, brrrrrrrrrrrwas it cold :eek::eek:
However, we made £45.62 profit :T. Cleared out junk and still have 4 good things to put on eb@y.
US, thanks for the FLW heads up :T.
Froggy, you must have been listening as yes, I did offer to sell Mr T and DD on a couple of occasions, but no takers :rotfl:
It was really good fun, if extremely cold. Lots of banter with the stall holders all around us.
Came back and had a brandy and coffee to warm me up
Mr T is going to the bank tomorrow morning:):) and we can OP tomorrow night.
I need to plant some geraniums now, otherwise our kerb appeal will be looking a little dodgy.
