Only teasing.

I know they're not 'real' teeth but raspers but they look pretty menacing anyway!

The rocket will be fine once you've wiped the slime off dianthus!

It's saying 'cheese' Dai , or tomato, or cabbage, or courgette...

Roofy you might need a bigger tub of pellets, that's a lifesize photo of what is climbing up the wall to your veggies!

More Spudlinks !

I harvested SpudBins #3 and #4 yesterday. Another bumper crop by RoofGarden standards. (or, in allotment terms... a pocketful ! ).

(click for bigger spudlinks).

I reckon that - between all four bins - I've got around 12lb of spudlinks this year. That's easily double my previous attempts !

Roofgardener is VERY happy

And one bin remains... bin#5... "The Beast".

I put a large (and manky) baking potato in there 6 months ago, applied ample feed and water, and .. for good measure ... wired a lightening conductor up to it.

Who knows what dread creature lies in those abysmal depths, slowly drawing its catastrophic plans to completion ?

"We Belong Baked"
