  • Calm Down Calm Down!

    Sorry folks but I am in super hyper mode tonight
    I got a phone call this morning from Medwyn Williams to tell me that he had won his 11th Chelsea RHS medal. I said that was great Medwyn.
    Oh but there is better news than that he says, I have won the Presidents award for the best exhibit in the pavillion. I said that is tremendous Medwyn.

    So there I am tonight watching the RHS show when on he comes and they have great shots of all my potatoes on it. Yes I did get a bit excited at this point but it was once Alan Titchmarsh stated that Medwyn had beaten 600 world class exhibits that it really sunk in.

    Basically the seed potatoes that I have supplied him with have produced the best potatoes he has ever had at Chelsea and he thinks thats why he won.
    I feel like I have been part of this achievement and I am delighted for the Williams family who have put so much work into their display.

    I think I need a rest now(system overload)

                  Thanks everyone.
                  Yes it has been some week for me so far. On Sunday a film called Native son was shown at the Cannes film festival which was shot on our farm using our machines etc etc and was about a lonely potato picker. I was excited about that but now I have this aswell.
                  What an unbelievable week.
                  Somebody had better stop me because I have a crazy urge to open a can of red bull(too late tssshh glug glug glug)
                  I hope you can all share in my glory with me.

                        No you aren't, our Carol - I bet your tatties come out just great and yummy with it!!

                        Tattieman do you do small batches for those of us just dabbling in growing spuds? The maximum I plant is 10 seeds of any variety.

                              The red bull has kicked in.
                              I should warn you that I might stop making sense soon.
                              I have already had my first idea inspired by jeanied. How about I do all of Medwyns prize winning potatoes in small packs and call it Medwyns Chelsea Collection!!!
                              That would be a great way to kick off next season.
                              Rogesse I will have to get a digital signature to send you hahahaha.
                              I think we will have to have a red bull party on here, binley100 share them out please.
