Can't wait to get there - 4 days till we land and counting!

I've had to think about this a bit.

I think my very fave thing is when my duck and hens start to lay . I just love that.

Second to that is the lengthening of the evenings when we can sit out on the deck as the twilight comes down. I rather like that.

Price of tomatoes is coming down!

You can pick up some seeds and have all the tomatoes you can eat for like...half of nothing. They grow really well here if you can keep them kind of MOIST.

Give me a chance will ya! we're still fresh off the boat. Will be doing exactly that this year in our lovely big glasshouse

I was wondering whether you guys down south grew tomatoes -

Now now you JAFA . what would you all do if we didn't grow copious amounts of blimmin' swede down here! swede purée smudged on a plate for $200 anyone?

Spring is here today. Lovely and toasty in the sun. I've been able to sort out my lemon tree & pick all the oranges & grapefruit before the next lot starts appearing.
