Its getting better, so I must be quick writing this. After yesterdays wet happenings, maybe I should not need to worry about a hose Ha Ha.
The back near the shed will be set out to involve a new developement. The POND erosa.
Gates and also bench will be provided so you may rest awhile. Couldn't be better eh.
Short blog this one as the INET tends to throw me off after a few minutes. Keep watching.

Moon Planting
Hi everyone,
well Christine surprised me with her gift of Red Currants and what a surprise.
Have been resetting the slabs on pathway and started to get some assemblance to bottom half of the plot.
Noticed my sunflower was missing its main growing point so aked Julie for another.
Must get this plant going as its the third attempt.
Pumpkin seems slow to get on eith producing anything like a runner or start, so will keep an eye on thet to. Pesy cheeky Pigeons are getting greedier and really pushing their luck. Might get pigeon pie yet. Have thought of a good name for the pool area, LA POND=EROSA

Its all Happening here
Hi everyone.
Nice to have a few minutes to get on the blog page and update it.
Well welcome to the BADGER SET and I know there are a few of you out there that are really interested in the new name.
Been down the plot today and have watered all that needs it and also looked at the greenhouse and noticed my Grapes are thickening up. Must get them thinned out a bit though as there will be no more room soon.
Christine was down there and also watering while Mike must have been lounging in the best seat in the house in front of the TELE. Some blokes have all the luck.
Its amazing how much she has put into her site and the walkways are getting filled in nicely. Must keep that blinkin grass cut on the paths though as it is growing like no tommorrow. Thats my job Chris not yours.
The broad beans are delicious and the runners are slowly coming along. Can not wait to taste the first Dunluce pots as they are due to be turned up July the 6th. They look good and are a good colour at the moment. The green parts that is above ground.
Made a new addition to the shed and its to scare the pigeons, but they seem to be on course to do more damage than usual. They are very hungry this year.
Forgot to take me shed key down and so was left to water and check things over before retreating to the bungalow for shade. Its bloomin hot out there today.
Saw Reg and noticed he had some caterpilars on his cabbages, so was only too pleased to assist by saying where they were so he could get rid of accordingly.
Have put on the councils Newsletter about our Talk evening on the 23rd July, and also there will be news on there about the Show as well.
It might create some more interest for other plotters from the area and bring them into the club.
Roger has had a little upset recently, so I told him to be patient and we would sort it out.

Its News
Hi all and welcome. Well what do you know, we are now called the 'BADGER SET'
Its after the surname you know. I shall have to polish me shoes up and get some proper allotment clothing to make a new impression.
The cheek of it all. As a Committee Member of Hill, I am at the number one spot. 1A that is. There is a large pice of stone I shall be painting up with the Badger Set piccy when its done and show you all. The plot is getting better each week and we have started putting in the winter greens and other similar items. I am really looking at the MOON Planting system and run off a copy eachh week to give me the weeks work.
It could'nt be simpler. I have noticed some strange things happening in the greenhouse, there are [lants coming in ion pots. I do not see any legs or footprints though. Where the dickens thay are coming from I do not know. Ah well kjust get on with it and maybe one day some person oor persons will own up to it.
Got to go and see a specialist Neurologist soon in July so I shall take a look to see what all the shaking going on is. If it is the Parkinsons problem then I know I will have the correct handshake to join that exclusive club. You have to be on the ball in that society so I have heard.
Thw Dunluce pots are coming on nicely and so are the Broad Beans. Been picking some lately to enjoy at meal times. Strawbs are berr-utiful and they are only in their pots still. Must make a special bed for them.
I have decided to plant some different veggies together in the same area and I have Onions growing with Sweetcorn and shallots with lettuces. They are all doing very well. Trying to confuse the little blighters that settle and gnaw away at the tips of plants and things. The beer traps are catching some nice slugs so that works too. Have to go and get meself some pain killers now as I feel a bit drawn and painful, so take care out there we love you all and keep watching the blog. Johnieb
