    Winter watching

    Hi All

    A couple of years back people posted links to various gardening videos/TV shows. I have used the vines sophisticated search facility but can't find anything.

    I think Potty posted a link to a TV series in the West Country about allotment growing....any ideas or recommendations?

        I've got the DVDs - but I'm sure somebody on here posted the YouTube links on another thread (Martin H or Pots possibly).

            I didn't know what you were on about until I checked the link. .

            Anyway, is the TV series this one available from Ama3on ?

            https://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Allotme.../dp/1135920966

            If it is - I'm sure Martin H posted the episodes from YouTube on here a couple of years ago. (I've tried looking for them, but with no joy).

                I've just spent some time looking at Utube vids - and ended up watching Two girls and a Cabbage - about how to cook a cabbage during the war.
                I've also watched how to build a compost heap and how Mr Taylor and his son Alan, and Mr Bailey who had the next plot, prepared their allotments for winter.
                They're all WW2 films - fascinating social history. I think I saw a young rary eating boiled cabbage, maybe not, probably a bit too young to be rary.

                    I think I have seen that one, if it's the one where you were describing how to cook cabbage and keep the goodness in it
                    it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.
