    Hi Pania :wave:

    I've struggled to catch up with the boards over the last few days, there are so many new diarists. And your diary has leapt pages and pages which I tried to catch up on, but the computer crashed (I'm not blaming your diary :rotfl: )

    Just so as I understand (i.e. I'm being nosey :o )
    -You have an offer of a ticket to your most fave place in the universe for March?
    - this may be the end of the line for you and your OH?

    These are such mammouth pieces of news I wanted to be sure that I hadn't misunderstood as I trawled through millions of posts.

    Hi Pania

    You plant the little seeds, and it grows like mustard in mustard and cress pots - then you dig it in to where its been growing. It has a couple of functions: it stops weeds taking root by taking root itself, and it "fixes" nitrogen, I think - i.e. takes nitrogen from the air and transfers it down to the soil, which improves the soil. Its a win win crop, in about 6 weeks!

    I've been ignoring amazon listing at the mo, had a bit of a happy accident in relation to matched betting - delayed joining sportingbet, and then realised I had to get a move on if I wanted to do their £25 a week deal. So I did, & did my qualifying bet yesterday, and its worked out correctly! Expecting the free bet to be credited tomorrow.

    Sorry to hear about you and OH, its really not working now, is it? Are you still talking to one another?

    Karma, i am trying very hard and don't do as well as i can do. I planted aubergine, leek, onion, tomatoes and cabbage seeds. I'm hoping the mustard seeds will grow i've not tried it before so thought i would give it a go. It's only a plot of 6ft by 3ft so i'm trying to do as much as possible with it. I've got last years onions growing at the moment, they didn't do much so i left them in. I did very well with green beans ( which i hate lol) and spinich (i love) and loads of other salads. I even grew aubergines but they were attacked before they had time to grow very big. This year i will be more prepared (shotgun ready for the slugs). I'll keep you informed if Pania doesn't mind me hijacking as well.


    Pania would you recommend the bingo? i've not had the courage, probably because i assume they require me to put money down first. Would be nice to 'earn' a bit of money that way though.

    Hope all is well thanks for the good news today.

    Hi Peepys!!!

    LOL at the green manure!!:T sounds like a fab idea. As soon as i have serviceable garden again i'll remember that one!! it is all gravel and shrubs right now, not very inviting i have to say but low maintenance for the landlady!:rolleyes: I managed to spray coke all over my keyboard today, :o had a swig and chocked and WHOOSH!!! laptop drinking coca cola!!!!:beer: :rotfl: Spacebar now not depressing properly so sorry if mytypinggoesalittlelikethis occasionally!!!! :o

    Karma I see you've been matched betting hon, :T hows it going?got the hang of it yet? Hypno's right about it being like sex, nerve wracking first time round but you worry what all the fuss was over! (or so i've been told, sweet and innocent me!:p )I do hope it's going ok, not done any in ages must get back into it!!

    Lemontree go for the bingoing hon, there are a number that don't require money to sign up but if you win you have to make sure your balance is over £30 beofre you can withdraw so may end up topping up.
    Closerbingo foxy icbingo and a number of others give a sign up bonus and you don't have to deposit first. See how you get on! :D No worries re the good news, didn't hear anything form the others will let you know soon as.
    Big hugs one and all. xxx

    Evening P.. it must feel good to have made a decision? And I think it's a good one to make... :)

    Hope laptop isn't too sticky - mine 'drank' two glasses of wine last year but eventually recovered (apart from one of the keys falling off :o)

    Lemontree, will be interested to hear how your gardening goes, I grew loads indoors last year but they took over a bit! Got a little bit of garden now so am trying to decide what to stick in there, today I became the proud owner of a blackcurrant bush :D
