Lucky you Andrewo
Not only am I going to have to go to work tomorrow, I know what awaits me when I get there - think I'll throw a sickie - or maybe I'll just jack. It's still snowing here, though it's now a wet snow, so hopefully we'll see a thaw before the days out.

Ta Rat, Thought I'd put up one last bloom while I was still a tuber It's called Weston Spansh Dancer bred about 8 miles from where I sit.

Not sure of the order eskymo
Seedling, Sprouter, Rooter, Tuber, Cropper & then we're not sure yet I think Haz Bean

Correct me if I'm wrong oh Super Moderators

Still think Jennie is on the right lines with "compost" - after you've harvested your crop, what else is left but to compost whatever remains -though maybe you become a harvester first

The race to find out what comes next, is between Andrewo and Nick the Grief.
It's a bit like the Grand National. Everyone wants a flutter and anyone could be right.

The wind here hit 90 mph plus yesterday ! Given that we live in one of the windiest tunnels in Shetland, I guess thats what we got ! Still a F9 and its set to last for another 24 hours.

Oh well ........

90 mph sounds pretty grim Jennie. Makes your snow drift sound quite minor really. Never mind, soon be Spring
