Oh they would nt need an erection pack

Good Morning everyone,

Think I ve hurt my arm again. I can keep it under control with pain killers just now, so I ll see how I go before I rush off to the chiropractor again but he did say don t leave it too long if it happens again.

It's times like this that I realise I'm getting old and can t do as much as I d like to do . Probably happened when I was lifting slabs on Friday :mad:

Hi,
Can you tell if the flowers or male or female?

The female flowers (which will produce cucumbers) have a small elongated swelling ie a tiny cucumber behind the flowers. The male floers are on a very thin stalk. the difference is clear once you see the 2 types together.

I used to be in school productions but have always been to shy to get up in front of other adults.

I love singing to myself, in the car, shower. Would sing in the bath if I had one.

Actually getting a bath is a step closer, have made the decision on getting new garage/garden room built. Should be done before the autumn. :T

I ve always sang to myself ever since I was young, now i notice I talk to myself as well but only when I think I'm alone lol:D It's the only way to get a sensible answer is n t it . and no quips of Senile Susie either thank you David.

Good morning. Lovely day here but also very fresh outside. I have a couple of questions for the gardeners:
1) How do I know when my potatoes are ready to harvest?

2) What do you feed your cucumbers with - mine is about the size of a gherkin & there is only 1 growing and I have 3 plants.

Thanks

A lot of cukes are self fertile, but sometimes they just need a little helping hand from a cotton bud or make up brush - from the male to female flowers
