Food metres
Dug up my first lot of spuds today. Cooked them for lunch and ate them with my mange touts. They were delicious. There is nothing like home-grown veg. Potatoes are easy to grow, as long as they remain free from blight. Mange tout peas require little care other than the provision of supports for them to climb up. I used chicken wire, kept in place with stakes and bamboos, placed on both sides of the rows and joined at the top to make a V. This kept pigeons at bay. Fortunately, slugs and snails left them alone; they were busy with my broad beans.
Thought for today
An idealist is one who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better soup.
H L Mencken (1880 - 1956) American journalist
