    Please free feelto delete me if inappropriate...tis saturday night & I've had a couple...getting a cold on top of toothache's not nice!


    Anyway!I confess,I've had a totally apathetic crap season....the growing wasn't too bad but it soon dwindled when I realised I couldn't be a***'d with cooking the stuff!....You lot are pretty much my only like minded friends,therefore possibly the only peeps that will help me find my mojo again....which believe me I want to find!
    The fact that I've not been as into growing & enjoying my own veg this season has really put me off some of the more gardening related sections of the forum...I'd feel a total hypocrite posting advice that I can't get off my own butt to follow!So.....chit~chat has been my little saviour over the last few months,amongst the possibly trite drivel...my words yet not my thoughts!...there's also little bits that remind me how much I actually love GYO.

    Cheers Ollie...you've made sure & kept at least one persons interest going!

      Just for the record, Ollie was nominated because he joined the Grapevine and joined in straight away with every aspect of the community - growing, cooking and eating, and chat; he starts great threads which entertain everybody; he's sensible and keeps a cool head if things seem to be getting 'het-up'; he's helpful and supportive if anyone needs it, and he was suggested by at least one other Grape. In short, he's everything that a Member of the Month should be Soz if this has embarrassed you hun, but it needed saying!

      Thank you once again for all the comments. I wasn't going to post on here again until the goodies arrived and I was going to tell you what I got, but it feels rude not responding to all the lovely comments.
      My first reaction when I found out about the MOMship was that I just enjoy spending time on here, being named Member of the Month is just a complete bonus and a really nice gratification that other people know you're out there.
      I can completely appreciate how hard it must be to pick a MOM, I honestly have no idea who I would choose as the forum only works because of everyone on it rather than any particular grapes.
      And I'd like to extend extra thanks to whoever nominated me. It's nice to know there's someone thinking of you, even (or rather especially) if you don't know who that is.

          How incredibly rude If you "popped by" more often you would know that MOM awards are given for a variety of reasons, you would also be aware that posts like this are quite unacceptable.

                        I'm hoping for the death of the X-phincter as much as the next man.

                        I'd rather watch paint boil.
