No kids this weekend so spent Friday night and most of Saturday planting up my allotment. Was praying for the rain to hold off while I worked, which it did, but now I'm done I need it to rain as the tap down at the allotment is fecked. Only glorious sunshine so far.
Spent yesterday undercoating woodwork. Went to bed early with a crappy headache. Feeling much better today thankfully.

Well the allotment is a 10 minute walk from the house and I don't have a hosepipe that long.

And what of it? Home grown veg - tastes better than shop-bought, costs feck all, good exercise - I'm struggling to see the downside here.

i bet you couldn't taste the difference between your courgettes and the ones from waitrose

On Friday you were going to drown them - despite the fact that both of them are probably bigger than you.
Well as it goes I'm not planting courgettes, but let's say for the sake of argument carrots. A carrot can be picked out of the ground, cooked and on my plate in less than an hour. Are you seriously saying that a carrot that was picked probably a week ago, been lobbed around the back of a lorry, and sitting on a shelf in Waitrose is going to taste as good?

i knew i forgot to do something this weekend.
i still doubt you'd taste the difference once it had been peeled and smothered in salad dressing or boiled to death.
OR with the carrots.
