[Straight Shooter]

Yes Pete I am in much demand ! ….between grannies bread and bumps jam, jellys and all things pickled and the honey I can just about cope. Up John the farm today he put in his normal order ….everything ! Especially the jelly owing to his dentures ! And could wildchild make him a tin of Welsh cakes ….his wife can no longer see that well …..although she still has a go bless her, she will never give up ….old school Pete ! .

In the small hydroponics poly tunnel this morning could not believe my eyes my tomatoes and cucumbers were not at all looking good and I do not understand why ? ……until the news at six ….its happening country wide by all accounts …..there will be shortages down the big poly tunnel they seem to be okay for now ! Anyone else having problems ? Let us know ! …..I spoke to bloody soon yesterday ! …..good year I said ….my arse ! Most seeds this year have not germinated well especially peas ? And good seeds two ? On the dark side I pulled some turnips last week threw them in a basket , the basket toppled over and down the hill they went Cathering speed the buggers rolled straight into the caravan-narrowly missing wild child! As I shouted look out and she jumped for safety just in time sadly the caravan was written off ….we have a new one now ! Just gos to show how dangerous growing veg can be ………be careful out there it’s a jungle desperate veg will do desperate things …..why did you not through yourself to the ground to save wild child SS ? Well I did acually as I used my body as a break and hung on with each revolution said turnips slammed me into the concrete driveway as if I was a rag doll…….as she tended my many wounds and her soft words of support “ you were very very brave , not many men would have had the guts to confront one turnip let alone four of the buggers kissing my head she said my hero ,,,,,,we all lived happily ever after …..please guys no words of praise are needed or required , it was nothing! In any event I had the last laugh ….i chopped the bastards up and put them in the freezer along with the front bottom vallace off the caravan .
