You're really scraping in the dirt for that one. |

They're great. More and more younger people are cottoning on to the fact that growing your own fruit and veg is a most rewarding pastime. I've never had one but I've been lucky enough to always have a fairly large garden, and in the past I've grown runner beans, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce etc with some success. |

The reasons for one are many - feeling of achievement; growing healthy food; reducing food bill; exercise; something the whole family can join in; a place to bury the wife if she's late with my diner... But I am secretly worried that the fact that I'm so enthusiastically endorsing allotments just further proves what an old biddy I have become. |

You can't fight it, Dud. You are getting old. This time next week you'll be Jack Hargreaves. |

You should drag yourself down to the Kamikaze family home where you can see my wifes new frugal way of living, shes gone from Cosmo to Eco-Warrior over night, we have 3 chickens (rescued from battery farm), so now we have free range eggs on tap, I dug her out a little plot where we now have spring onions, carrats, radish and tomatos growing, down the rear of the garden you will find 2 guninee (spoiling?) pigs, both rescued. The hutch was free from someone down the road that was chucking it out.....and I have recently discovered the love of 'pottering' in my shed. We have 3 children (not rescued) a cat (temper of mafia don) and a dog.....rescued from the clutches of David3560....so pack a picnic and come along to the Kamikaze family farm. I will get the wife to knock you up some liberated spuds on our incinerator where we stick the dog shit, we burn it off once every few months but we also like a good bbq, see the fucking yapping piece of shit dog next door, be amazed as you hear the neighbours coo gentle to their rabid fucing creature that is trying to eat its way thru to the fence to "stop it sweet heart", why not grab a paint brush and stain a fence panel panel, see Uncle Kamikaze's plums and try getting your mouth around his enormous bell peppers, or why not try milking Mrs Kamikaze.....so what you waiting for?? its fun for all the family. |

Radishes are the Devil's salad item and no mistake. So I will kindly decline the offer of suckling at your nearest and dearest's supernumerary nipple. But would she perchance have a decent recipe for elderflower champagne I could prevail upon? Edited: Dud - Wed 11 Jun 2008 (1:09PM) |

Before I do, what's your stance on radishes? |

Radishes are great. Really strong ones make your eyes water - mind you, so does basting your scrotum with cooking oil and grilling for 20 minutes. |
