Yawn ... wakey, wakey ...

Sorry Macleaf.I must apologise,please don't cry.I meant that me and Gogs kept each other company in the mornings when all you sleepy heads were still tucked up in bed,please don't fall out with me...

 

Ok Rosa.We went to the allotment today and picked the rest of the apples and pears.We also found another very large Pumpkin.Mr Kandy has weighed it as best he can and reckons it weighs about 48lb.

Glad you enjoyed yourself and that the food was nice where you stayed.Pity the weather easn't up too much.We have had it nice here the whole weekend

 

no problem my beautiful lady

 

Thanks macleaf I didn't know you cared

 

Good morning everyone.Still trying to get used to this EXTRA hour that we have all gained.
It's just getting light here,but at least it is dry,though I cannot remember what the forecast is for today,or for the week for that matter.

We are going to be spending part of today sorting through the fruit and vegetables we harvested yesterday.I cannot believe the size of some of the apples.

Hope you all have a good day

 

Hi Shiney,

We could do with some Pumpkin recipes for the small ones,but I am not sure what we can do with the monster ones.The lady at the competiton last weekend had the proper "carriage" shaped ones she won with {113lb}Her seed came from America five years ago and she uses the seed from the winning one each year.Most of the big ones had to brought to the competition in a blanket with someone at each corner to carry it.

My husband found another one hidden amongst the weeds and foliage yesterday and reckons that one weighs about 48lb.Not bad for a first attempt!!

I cut my grass yesterday for the last time hopefully,but found it kept getting clogged up round the blade as the grass was damp.It took me ages as well and our garden is only 40'X 30'

I shall be glad when it is slabbed.A nice green colour slab I think.

I will get some photos on here of my pumpkins when I get a chance
