Well, it's bottoms up in the garden, so I've been planting out runner and broad beans, and chard. This year I'm growing beetroot and parsnips in plugs to see if I get any better results - last year was a bit feeble. It is so dry here at the moment and I need to crfack on.

SS, will you please SLOW DOWN you're making me dizzy.

Despite working 70 to 80 hours a week for the past couple of months, I've been able to get a decent indoor veg garden set-up and growing. Built up the sides of a planter box to around 1 meter high, and have a massive potato plant growing like crazy in it. Also have a couple of tomato plants, a cucumber vine with heaps of growth on it and salad greens, as well as a couple of as yet unidentified self-sown climbing veg (either cucumber or loofah) in the balcony garden, plus mint and parsley that has regrown after being attacked by our pet rabbits. Speaking of which, the female appears to be pregnant, so might have a litter to deal with soon. Have also met up with a bloke I used to work with who now has an outdoor gear factory, so will be looking at possibly getting some camping stuff and a few other bits and bobs from him soon.
