Any one having trouble with their marrows?
Any one having trouble with their marrows?
I was wondering are there any other keen gardeners on the forum? I really only got into it about 5 or 6 years ago when my son and his mates got a bit too big to be using the back garden as a footie pitch. I dug the lawn up and now grow a lot of my own veg, as well as keeping an area for flowering plants although my missus decides what goes in there.
I love the listening to match commentaries on a Saturday and Sunday afternoon whilst pottering about in my wellies.

I heard Lefty once had a nasty accident with a gnome. Seems the gnome fell over on top of him and nearly crushed him.

Old thread but I feel it important to say - read the title of this thread and thought someone had testicle trouble.
