When I first had rhubarbs, I used them like veg:eek::eek:. My ex had our first rhubarbs prepared Logan's way and he liked it. Next time, I will let my son eat them with Cornish icecream and I reckon he would have any left over for me.. knowing him..

Good morning to all and I reckon it's grey or probably raining in Verdun's!

Logan: I think I'm going to have a lovely supply of rhubarbs for at least 2 months.

Very clear sky, but the sunshine is still weak. I wish I had left the trays to shield my cosmos as they are still tiny. Going to do a big shop for son. Really need to pot out the tomatoes and sunflowers seedlings. As if on cue, the sun has increased its brightness and everything looks so much happier! Have a nice day, everyone!

Morning Logan,alp and anyone else who looks in today.

Hope you all got a good night's sleep and that all aches and pains have eased up a bit. Thankfully mine have...must have been all that rhubard chat:D.

Forgot to ask you Logan, how is Berry's paw now?

Off to pot up, I'll be there for hours so catch up with you all later.

Happy Sunday!x

Morning everyone :)
First rain for a while now...heavy overnight and now. Lawns cut yesterday and plants planted out as well as beds weeded so the rain is most welcome. Amazing growth in veg patch because of the rain. Happy to say though that rain is due to clear soon :)
Share Upsy Daisy's concern for Berry
Have a good day folks ;)

Good morning to all: I'm green with envy that Verdun said he had heavy rain overnight. I will believe we have rain when I see it. The forecast is pretty useless. Nice that everything clicks into place and your veg patch is doing nicely. I must seed some lettuces. One seed from last year is bearing lovely green leaves. Daisy - have a nice day.

Have a good day, every one. I'm off to see the ospreys before I shut down.

Morning Daisy, Alp and Verdun.
Just had a nap. Yes thanks feel better today.Berry's paw ok thanks. Glad that you feel better Daisy. OH potted on 4 cucumbers yesterday, so they'll be alright.:D
Everything else is growing well, hope that OH can look after them.:( Got a few things in the small GH. Some containers that I've made into cold frames. Put fleese and bubble wrap over top, don't know if he'll be able to keep things going.:( Have to wait what I can do after 1st June.
Have a good day everybody.:D
