Good luck with them, Welsh Daffodil (loving the name)    

There's a lot of guff talked & written about growing tomatoes....and all it comes down to is the prevailing weather and not sowing the seed too early.

Yes, resilient little devils, these tomato seeds.

When I was a youngster, a ready source of tomato plants was from our local sewerage works.(I'm sure I don't have to use the graphics to explain their journey)  Not surprising most of them were of the Italian plum variety.

"I hope David, there are many who where there abouts and that they will join in the debate as they did with the other series, it got quite lively at times."

Indeed, Frank!

As with the Victorian & Edwardian Farm series, I'm not expecting accuracy in every minuscule detail, just an outline & general idea of how things were at the time.....time would prevent otherwise.

Frank, perhaps in should be remembered that there are others hereabouts who in their time may have stacked a few stooks, delivered milk with a pony & trap and cut their pea & bean sticks from the local coppice.

My cuttings!
