                  After careful planning, measuring, sewing and securing a special insect net over my gooseberry and blackcurrant bushes to keep out the sawflies, this was the total crop from both - 1 gooseberry.

                          OK not a parrot but Kiwano Cucumbers as you can see I have lovely plumage (urmm I mean vegetation) but it's Bereft of life in that there isn't a single cucumber or a hint of a cucumber on it anywhere.

                            I haven't yet cracked how to grow carrots My first load in the raised bed got eaten by slugs. These were grown in a container and I got excited when the tops started showing.

                            On the plus side, I didn't have problems with carrot fly!
