Hi from the North East

Post: # 159537Post chilimik »

This is my first year putting half the garden to some productive use and not just Chilli plants although there's not much room in the greenhouse now !

Do a little bit of foraging up here in Middlesbrough mainly crab apples, brambles and sloes. Was going to go billberrying today but the weather got in the way a bit !

Hiya Mike, and welcome!

I'm from the north east, too - but a different country... :lol: You've got to be careful what you say here - so many different countries involved! :wink:

Hi and welcome - thought I recognised those cranes! Have fun
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Mike - I live in the town centre but my allotment is at beechwood.

Big Al - I give in, is it a joke or a genuine inquiry? I don't know of any specific connection other than that of geography.
