    Good morning everyone

    Rosa
    Our local PYO, a few years ago, changed from planting their strawberries in the normal way to planting them on raised benches. Now you don't have to bend over to pick them [​IMG] so they get a lot more people coming along.

    Kandy,
    One of my neighbours told me that he got so fed up with the slugs coming back after he had thrown them in the field that he now hunts them twice a day with a pair of scissors - ughh :eek: :eek:

    That made me cringe :eek:

    Have a great day :D

    I have just been out in the kitchen making myself a nice Chicken salad for my lunch.It is nice to be able to step outside and pick some fresh lettuce and chives,and hopefully Runner Beans Beetroot Toms and Cabbage when they all get going :D

    Good morning everyone,well I suppose we had better get ready for a price hike on all farming produce, the warnings are trickling through about crop failures due to all this bad weather, I'm sure even the rice growers will jump on the band waggon.

    Morning Walnut and all posters,Thanks for that information,the poor hard up farmers in their over large farm houses will look for any excuse to put up the cost of the vegetables.I wonder if they do that in other countries,or whether it only happens in the uk :rolleyes:

    A friend of ours who used to visit farms as a pest control officer told me some time back that the farmers were paid to plough the crops back into the fields to keep the prices up :(

    Have a good day everyone in all you do :cool:

    Good morning walnut and Kandy ... and rosa out there somewhere.

    It's going to be warm here today as we are nearly 25 already at this ungodly hour. We're going to about 32 ... 30 is the kickstart temp for both cicadas and air conditioning.

    I'm trying to teleport some of my sun to you all.
