Mine have done well this year, and my good god the flavour is intense.

As a side note, the fucking adverts on this site...

From a poolish made in the morning to a Baguette in the evening…

Tricky to get it correct, but worth the effort trying.

Really sorry to hear that Ian, that's got to be a tough gig.
Really tough :(
You've definitely done the right thing with minimising her (and your) stress, and you know she'll be cared for.

A few bits plucked from the garden today..

The French beans should see me through to next year at the very least.
I picked at least half a carrier bag of them...

Liking the sound of the bacon & Stilton, can you post your recipe?

Ok, so not really a computer disaster, but..

I decided to grab all my old PC bits & bobs and chuck them together in a system I could sell to fund more upgrades for my main rig..

Last week the request from my parents was carrot and coriander bread, but now it’s gone to a whole new level of daftness..

Hardly a culinary masterpiece, but I've got to use my home grown produce before it spoils or gets made into other stuffs, so..

Home made bun, roll or bap (depending on ones location) with home...

Sat in the garden this afternoon with a rather agreeable bottle of Chablis and watched one particularly busy solitary bee line her nest in my hose reel..
Time after time she appeared with some huge...

Cucumber/Triffid plants have gone ballistic this year and have taken over the greenhouse.
The Basil plants aren’t too shabby either..

I use Roundup and it murders pretty much anything its sprayed on, although I haven't used it on ivy.
The only way to kill ivy imo is dig it up at source.

Thank you.
It's more luck than anything, that and fertile soil.
Cant say I've seen a single aphid this year or any other for that matter.
Lets hope it stays that way.

I'm only guessing here, but if you want the one you pictured, that'll be well well over £130K.
You could buy a decent used S63AMG (which is a tremendous car) and still have enough change for a new...

I just can't get my head around why anyone would want one at the cost.
When the Edition 1 came out a few years ago, we couldn't get enough of them to sell, and bear in mind when specced up they were...

Veg garden getting there..
Asparagus, radishes and mangetout finished up, early potatoes nearly gone, just waiting on the sweetcorn, French beans, celery, onions and garlic now.

They are utterly horrid things, try driving one.
When Merc have to put inflating bolsters in the seats to stop one falling out of the window when cornering, then that should tell you how well they...

some stripes :D

Sadly not, unless one buries one face into them.
That rose (according to the previous owner) is 40+ years old!
