Anyone who grows tomatoes knows you use old stockings for their flexibility.

Cable ties. :roll:

My old neighbour had tomato plants growing behind his shed.
Not sure why as he had plenty of space elsewhere!

Just ducked out for my daughter's Year 12 Graduation, the principal called her up to close the ceremony and do all the thankyou's etc.


Fair to say there was a fair lump in the throat happening.

Tomatoes, corn, capsicum, basil, strawberries, all of them are kicking goals. Put them in late September and they've gone mad. Had to add 1.8m high stakes to the tomatoes as they've already outgrown the 1.2m high ones. Corn looks like something out of a bloody gardening show.

Maresi!


It is well known that the abundant use of bullshite at Alberton gets things moving.

Feel mildly productive after working till 2.30am last night, getting up and doing all the gardening, returning my bottles (and getting over $55 for them!) buying a new carton and now just sitting down to my first ale, can have a few too as don't start till midday today!
Beautiful day out there today, almost enjoyed the gardening! :lol:
If only the weather stayed like this all summer.
