  1. Yes, really bad experience in my previous role, person below me wanted my job, and would of done anything to get it, this included lies, going out of her way to be awkward, and phone calls to the grant giving organisation! A very toxic atmosphere and a very unpleasant person. Thankfully i got a new job, and i genuinely like my work colleagues, blimey what a difference!

    Cornwall trip

    I would argue that that is the responsible thing to do.....hope you made up for after you ditched the car later that evening?
  3. Nice one all. Carrots have done badly this year. French Beans have gone well, potatoes and beetroot have been good, Onions i would class as OK, but not wow. Some of tomatoes have at last started to redden, will be eating the first ones this week. Cheers. Aled

    Cornwall trip

    Marking thread to read in detail later, visiting Cornwall later this summer.
  5. Nigella Lawson one dish chicken dinner with all veg home grown. Eating self caught trout with home grown spuds tomorrow!
  6. I grew those last year Micky, the seed packet i had was called Black Russian.
  7. Decided on an al fresco cooked carbohydrate free supper, steak, peppers, tomato's, mushrooms and home grown onions.
  8. As an aside, a bass has just been caught "up river" on the Tywi in West Wales yesterday!
  9. Blimey thats interesting, fished some of those Devon rivers mentioned back in the early 90's whilst at Plymouth Poly. Great fishing. So time to hang up the salmon and sea trout flies, and try for Bass on the fly...its great fun and the don't half hit the fly when they take!
  10. Managed first sea trout of the season on Saturday night, about 2.5lb, also lost a salmon of about 8lb, on fly before dark.
  11. Sunday Lunch with home grown potatoes.
  12. Dytkos, now that looks more like a Ploughmans lunch, which in my opinion does not count as salad.?

    Psoriasis

    Are Saunas Beneficial for Someone with Psoriasis? (plaquepsoriasis.com) I find that sauna's help me with my dry skin issues. May help you?
  14. Looking good guys, i think i've planted my onion sets too deep! Flowers on the tomato plants, beetroot looking good, and i will have home potatoes this week. Cheers Aled
  15. Seeing 1 or 2 weekly, which is not many, but a lot more than the 0 i usually see!
  16. Got a few spuds from the growing pot, not as many as i expected, but enough for a meal.
  17. First spuds of the season, a few less than i expected in the pot, but enough for a feed.
  18. Guess who made a lovely slow cooked lamb dinner, ...and forgot to take a picture and put it on the Hunting life what's cooking page????
  19. Nice one all. Potatoes beetroot and lettuce look OK, Carrots seem to be struggling, to early to say on my onions!
  20. Nice pictures all, great to see veg being grown. I've got a compact veg patch, and also grow in tubs, and grow bags.
  21. Pat Barker: Regeneration Trilogy Cant choose between Hugh Falkus or Moc Morgans Sea Trout Fishing books. John Humphreys: Country Gun Gwynfor Evans : Bywyd Cymro: (There is an English language version called "For the sake of Wales") Brian Moore: What goes on tour stays on tour. I've been a keen reader all my life, so I love reading fiction, King, JK Rowling, Follett, Hill, McDermid, Lin Anderson and many more, at the moment Tim Weaver is the flavour of the month.
  22. Planted the patch up yesterday: Potatoes, Carrots, Beetroot, Radishes, lettuce, leeks, onions, sweetcorn and French Beans all planted. Some light rain today as well so hoping they all thrive. All being well i'll catch a nice sea trout later this summer to eat with my new potatoes! Cheers Aled
