Cheapest spuds around here are £9.50 and they are grown locally.

Thats the same for me, last year was a tester for my allotment.
It floods in bad weather so I got another a bit further up the slope and more built up so looks and feels better.
filling it with staples like pots, onions etc next year.
If I have to lay guttering all round my allotment filled with rock salt I will, keep the little bastards off...
I tried to be normal once.... Worst two minutes of my life...

I'm not much for the Brussel Sprouts, but the plant tops are great eating and most grocers throw them away.

HAHA, supermarkets will have a lack of meat this Christmas too.

Now that I'm a security guard, I get to know all the cool stuff to look out for.

1 hour before my shift, some guy bagged up over £100 of meat and just walked out the shop! Crazy!!!
