The rain followed by the sun,followed by the rain seems to have helped everything shoot up, i’ve not kept on top of pinching the tomatoes out so they are massive now, never mind you live and learn

We have also eaten our first peas, new spuds and yellow courgettes, both were very tasty and much better than anything from the shop!

I guess it could have been worse, next doors was totally destroyed this time…..in broad daylight too by the sounds of things

they were obviously nicking off school and will no doubt get away with it as no one saw anything, what they need is a bloody good clout round the ears and at the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man….it never did me any harm.

It’s also giving me second thoughts about getting some dogs, as although they would be no where near the greenhouse im not sure i would fancy leaving them in their kennel and the garden during the day incase the same little scroats decided to pelt them with stuff.

Well not much i can do about it now i guess apart from price up some toughened glass or perspex…..if anyone knows a good supplier please get in touch.
