Strawberries

[shaneystar2]

This is their third year and I have lots of fruit already but they don't seem to be putting out any runners this year for me to pot on .They are not in the ground but in a strawberry pot and various other containers .Are they past their sell by date and shall I chuck them once finished fruiting and get new for next year ? I have had a few ripe fruits already and they taste OK !

Jno is making custard pies ! Well I don' t think they are your actual custard pies more like those splat in the face type pies. A la Laurel and Hardy :)) Sons of the Desert ..we'll all be living in tents soon .

no good, neti, the Ed obviously doesn't talk to anyone who doesn't hang around Chatterbank. Never mind, he has allowed us to stay in this nice little strawberry plot and we can always get manure from CB.

Neti vamps the Ed

[netibiza]

but but but, shaney and I have been hanging around chatterbank today (ooops, sorry Shaney!)

[netibiza]

More like Ed vamps old neti!

pump up the volume

Unfortunately I can only watch it from behind the sofa

[netibiza]

Best place to watch it jno; it's not there!!!!

[jno]

goodness, it was there last night. Never mind, it will be back soon, I'm sure. Basically it involves a man with a camera walking alongside a path built onto a cliff with a million-mile drop to one side and bits where there is a hole in the walkway. Brrrr.

[jno]

actually walking on, not alongside, a path. Still brrrr.

[netibiza]

jno a word of advice from long-time retiree, take more water with it.

[shaneystar2]

And it gets grimmer by the minute .Six o'clock ..ping ..blackout ..two hours in the dark with a Prices Candle and a torch while our half cooked dinner congealed on the oven ....deep joy .

[Robinia]

my day got grimmer too (not bro, just different cr4p)....it never rains does it?
