    It's too much work and a bad idea Drea.

    I want an allotment... someone PLEASE tell me it's too much work and a bad idea!

    I went as far as looking at one. It was too much work and a bad idea for me, but it'd suit you perfectly. ;)

    How many people are you feeding? For me it was a bad idea because there's only one of me and only so much I can eat. :p
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    There's just the two of us. And I don't drive so would have to have the OH around to cart things back and forward. And will I really want to go there when I start working again? Definitely a bad idea and too much work!

    ...I've added myself to a waiting list anyway :D

    Hmm, my strawberries are still just flowers :( Just had a look at the label & it says 'yield of fruit throughout June' - I think not :o

    Hope you enjoyed your first strawberry, Drea :) What variety have you got??

    I'm afraid I have no idea! I'm sure it began with E but they were one of the first I bought so was just interested in them being strawberries :rotfl: I doubt I'll ever get many at one time which is a shame.

    Was it nice and juicy, Drea? :D

    I'm having breaded fish tonight on a bed of spinach (out the garden) and decorated with parsley (also out the garden).

    It's the only two things that were ready to eat. :D

    It was, although was a little soft, I wonder if I left it out too long.

    My chillies are just about ready to eat but nothing else at the moment. I keep wondering if my potatoes should be about there, fairly sure they were earlies and they've been in a while now... I wonder I'll end up letting them rot :rotfl:

    I think it was a very caring thought too. :rotfl:
