      Count me in too! After wondering where I'm going to grow everything and not being very optimistic regarding my "blow away" which did blow away one year, my old Dad has offered to help me to secure it to the fence so it won't be travelling anywhere! He's also been growing tomatoes for decades which is handy! Lots of advice to be had. Game on. :biggrin:

        Minki, I'll pop a couple of Country taste toms in with the others you wanted to try. It's a biggie - and it's such fun trying to grow one. It was my first time last year and I was top for about a week...:hapydancsmil:. Others came along and I was third in the end I think. It's good fun!

            Toms for taste here, and I've got a rubbish greenhouse, so I'll just watch!

            What are the best varieties for sheer size, out of interest?

            (no rude answers!)
