One thing is doing well

Gave it a dressing of wood ash about a month ago. Thats pudding sorted

 

Nice! My crown has 3 leafs so it's got some way to go. I'll follow your tip, thanks.

 

Great Rhubarb Zigs - all you need now is the custard!

 

Think mine might be Timperley's Early or something like that Yvonne, planted it 3 years ago.

 

Got the custard, Tesco do it for 6p a packet

 

That's HUGE!

 

Been a while since i've heard that

 

It's looking good Zigs! Rhubarb crumble's the way to go, with custard of course.

 

Don't think i've made a crumble, apart from a quick one involving Oats

 

It's easy Zigs. Basic recipe.....4 ounces of self raising flour. 2 ounces of butter or marg. 3 ounces of granulated sugar. Rub it all together with your fingers. I make a huge one for Christmas every year with apples as my lot don't like Christmas pud, so the above is multiplied by five! Oh, and I reduce the sugar to 3 ounces as it's so sweet.

 

Blimey Zigs, looking good Mine is struggling to get a move on

 

I have a Timperley Early and it has never got that big! Wood ash, you say?

Congratulations on your show winner First prize; you must have felt chuffed with that

 

It has to be Rhubarb crumble and custard or cream Ziggy !
