Good Evening FORKERS

Posted: 20/05/2013 at 21:31

Hello folks Trust my laptop to start playing up just as I'm trying to do last minute organising for our holiday - if I don't appear on here much for a while it's because if I can't fix my laptop it'll have to visit my son in law in Ipswich, and I'm not sure when we can get it to him (he's an IT tech) so for the time being I'm on OH's laptop when he doesn't need it.

It really shouldn't cause a problem - it feeds on wood that is already rotten - it doesn't kill shrubs or trees itself.  Don't get  worried about it

MORNING FORKERS

Right, off to work - OH at home today so in charge of mollycoddling tomatoes - only two more work days after today 

Have a good day folks - hope the mizzle dries up quickly   

Hosta flowering - shall I or shan't I?

I think that, all things considered, I shall remove this flower spike.  The plant is one of a group of three and I'd like them all to develop at around the same rate - as this is the only one that is flowering this early I'm concerned that if it puts energy into flowering it may get left behind by the others.  They were only planted last year so maybe when they're a bit bigger I'll let them flower.

Thanks for your help folks!

You pay much more for the fat ones in the shops 

MORNING FORKERS

Posted: 20/05/2013 at 06:35

Good morning all   5C last night, 12C this morning   still quite cold overnight so the tomatoes are staying indoors in the studio while we're away - Italophile says they'll be ok, so Artjak, you're excused watering duty - do you really think a round trip of 100 miles a time is excessive  (only teasing ).

It's mizzly here at the moment, almost a sea fret - hopefully it'll brighten up before too long.

Been out there all day, even lunch on the terrace   Runner beans in, Swiss chard in, Shady Bank weeded, veg patch hoed, vine eyes and wires fixed for the espalier pear, supper eaten, now I'm going to doze for a bit
