I know exactly what you're up against trying to keep up with the plot, your garden and your favourite blogs as well as doing your own posts so I don't mind you being a bit sporadic in your posting as mine have been exactly the same. I'm up for yet another very busy weekend this weekend but I am hoping this will be the last hectic one for a while...fingers crossed for the weather!!Tanya.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08436595615435609755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980536948969347626.post-16107380911439139482013-05-09T20:51:40.756+01:002013-05-09T20:51:40.756+01:00A belated thanks for the mention Annie and also th... A belated thanks for the mention Annie and also thanks for your email too. Glad to hear that foxgloves are a favourite and hope that they do well for you. It's hard fitting it all in at the moment. Your allotment looks in great shape - mine is a bit hit and miss this year and I have some horrific weed problems to deal with with :( Interested to read that your red currants are so floriferous as my bush is looking as if it will produce more fruit this year and the white currant is positively dripping. They must have enjoyed all that rain last year more than we did.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980536948969347626.post-92154094394434828962013-05-07T13:28:06.579+01:002013-05-07T13:28:06.579+01:00Waxwings are one those birds I'd love to see b...Waxwings are one those birds I'd love to see but never have. How brilliant to have caught a glimpse of them Your plot is looking great. My blackcurrants and gooseberries are stuffed with flowers so I'm looking forward to a good season. Rhubarb wine sounds intriguing. I'm going to try my hand at cassis this year with all my blackcurrants.wellywomanhttp://www.wellywoman.wordpess.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980536948969347626.post-45472274521660669572013-05-06T09:29:37.659+01:002013-05-06T09:29:37.659+01:00I'm nipping out to harvest the first of my rhu...I'm nipping out to harvest the first of my rhubarb today, and I can't wait, there's nothing like that first crumble of the year is there.

Your fruit bushes do look good; I'm pleased the bees have found them. And I look forward to reading about the rhubarb wine!

Don't worry too much the potatoes as even if the foliage does get frosted it just sets them back a week or two until it regrows. <br />Lucky you seeing waxwings like that, they're a bird that I've never seen. <br />Enjoy the weekend, and happy gardening.

We too have had the first of our rhubarb, it's gorgeous with ginger isn't it? Last year , even though we netted our fruit bushes, a blackbird managed to get in and ate all the gooseberries, I hope he had tummy ache! Your plot is looking so neat and tidy and your veggies well advanced.Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16057764572761794703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980536948969347626.post-78120891772677061392013-05-03T21:00:08.093+01:002013-05-03T21:00:08.093+01:00How lucky to see waxwings - apparently their have ...How lucky to see waxwings - apparently their have been lots this year but guess who hasn't managed to see one even at the RSPB reserves that claim sitings of them!Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980536948969347626.post-61315813369321889022013-05-03T20:53:34.781+01:002013-05-03T20:53:34.781+01:00How lucky to see a flock of Waxwings my OH will be...How lucky to see a flock of Waxwings my OH will be green with envy.

The daffodils seem to have lasted ages this year, it must be down to the cooler temperatures, they've put on a lovely display though. Enjoy the weekend, let's hope for some nice weather so that we can get some jobs done.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.com
