Default kind of new, but also old - hello!
hiya - dont know if anyone remembers me, but I used to be Fruit&Veg Virgin, til about a year ago... life overtook me, although the veggie patch carried on I missed out on posting here! so hello - now I am 'Beach chick'. grew spuds, salad, courgettes and french beans v. successfully last year for the first time; got about 5 strawbs and rasps (off an awful lot of plants!), had lovely brocc til we found caterpillars in the cooking water...
anyway, we are about to add 4 choocks to the household tomorrow! so I look forward to catching up with old friends, and getting loads more advice...
