    Another OMG moment today- my chillies have gone mental! They're in the greenhouse and its been between 40-50 degrees in there the last few days. I swear they've grown by 5mm just this afternoon!

    Wow. Are they super spicy or normal ones? You probably live the other side of the country otherwise I would come and look and pinch some too. Could make one of Rick Stein's seafood curries. Mmmmmm. Hungry Mimi!

    Im feeling the stress of it here:eek: 2 kids leaving their respective schools. The calendar is jammed with stuff that's going on. Im definitely feeling disorganised with it all. I can't imagine what it's like your end :eek:

    3 play performances (1 during school time 2 in evening), 1 afternoon of baseball off site, 2 school masses - 1 for staff leaving, parents evening for anyone wishing to discuss reports, and 42 ipads to set up for whole school. That's without thinking about normal lessons, maths, english, R.E and welsh which need to be disrupted as little as possible.:eek:

    I've only got 3 cue plants and there are at least 8 coming through on each one. And most of my 34 tom plants are in flower. I started most of them late this year

    I've already been buying seeds in for next year. I can't wait :j

    Guess who forgot to open the greenhouse this morning?? :o

    You have 34 Tomato plants :eek: Oh my goodness you are going to have loads! of toms :D
    I have 12 and that's enough to keep us (5 of us) in fresh toms through the summer and for my OH to make a years worth of basic sauce to freeze for pasta, chillies, pizzas etc and my neighbours usually do well.
    You and Scampi will need to open a tomato stall at the car booty :D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    14 of them are beef toms. I ordered 12, thinking that I would inevitably lose some. They sent 2 doublers as part of the order and they all survived :o

    Yes. I am going to have loads. I've already got orders for them, and anything else that might be leftover will be eaten, cooked or sold in work :cool:
