Re: Any one having trouble with their marrows?
Don't know about the gay ones but my garden has provided a rich abundance of food this year.
I've had potatos, spinach, rocket, ruby chard, lollo rosso, greek cress, tomatoes, cucumbers, strawberries, courgettes, peppers, radish, carrots, chillies, celery, butternut squash, cos lettuce, green beans and DB10 beans (also known as dwarf beans).
It's saved me a fortune at the supermarket!
oh yeah, and spring onions

Interestingly DB10's beans have been fired up your missus on several occasions. She was a bit confused at first because her Ewok husband had tried to convince her that all cocks were 3 inches long. And then she met my Excalibur and now she walks like John Wayne after a week in the saddle.

Yes although she did point out that whilst yours was 5 inches long it was also green and only about 1/4 inch diameterDB10GOONER wrote:A gardening gay is a happy gay, huh?SPUDMASHER wrote:Don't know about the gay ones but my garden has provided a rich abundance of food this year.

That silly girl - always confusing the numbers 5 and 10! And I seem to recall she measured my diameter in gasps rather than inches!!SPUDMASHER wrote:Yes although she did point out that whilst yours was 5 inches long it was also green and only about 1/4 inch diameterDB10GOONER wrote:A gardening gay is a happy gay, huh?SPUDMASHER wrote:Don't know about the gay ones but my garden has provided a rich abundance of food this year.

And you'd be able to climb it! With ropes and crampons.
I used to call my schlong "Excalibur". Might start calling it "SPUDMASHER". The similarities are striking. 10 inches tall. Chubby with it. A proper prick. It's all there!

Have we figured out what 'marrows' is a euphemism for yet?
