I'm having trouble sleeping aswell but i am just use to it, just like you, we soldier on lol :)

The weather has been awful here today, rain, strong winds, 60 - 65 mph. My poor little dog was nearly blown away when he went out earlier but he urgently needed to do his business. I hope it calms down soon. I am seeing my Son and Grandchildren tomorrow which i'm looking forward to :)

I hope you have a nice weekend and you are not in too much pain and manage to get some sleep soon.

Love and hugs back to you xxxx β€πŸ’œ

in reply to blackbeauty99

Thank you so much for your kind words.

We are on restrictions in Rochdale. Just can't wait to go and see our son Ian and his girlfriend Chantelle. Mike lives at home and is desperate to see his girlfriend Alannah. She lives in Bingley Bradford.

How are you feeling at the moment? I do hope you manage to get some sleep as well. Even the cbg crystals and CBD tablets aren't working tonight.

Love and hugs Lynne xxxxβ€οΈπŸ’œ

Here's a great big hug

Thankyou so much for the hug. Here is a great big hug for you aswell

Aww, bless you. I'm glad you managed to get some sleep in the end. I didn't get any sleep. I've just tried this afternoon but I think I'm over tired as well as in pain because I can't manage to sleep πŸ‘Ž

Oh thank goodness. I thought this was a puzzle that I am too dense to solve, but no. Just simple beans.

Congratulations on a good crop!

in reply to daveh121

Ah no puzzle Dave, just a nice crop of beans. The photo you put on of your garden a couple of months ago or so inspired me.🌱🌈😊

Fantastic.

Our garden is winding down but we still have plenty of beets, tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, winter squash, peppers, greens, and more.

in reply to daveh121

Oh my goodness, you still have loads. Good job for freezers I sayπŸ‘πŸŒˆπŸ˜Š

Lovely. They will taste better than any beans you have had before. Enjoy!

in reply to Sheila_G

Thank you Sheila, my mum used to grow just about all of her own veg, it was lovely.πŸŒˆπŸ˜ŠπŸ™πŸŒ±

Look fantastic. Do enjoy, ours are over.

I picked 7 lockdown cucumbers yesterday. Coming thick and fast, 3 plants are on plot, 1 in greenhouse and 1 in my growbag. Far too many plants grown from seed but give them to friends and put in church porch.

in reply to diana1998

Thank you, we put them in late so are now reaping the benefits.

Well done on your cucumbers and how lovely to put them in the church porch.

Hi Alicia! Isn't it lovely to go out into the garden and pick your own grown stuff! I have been picking dwarf beans all summer on my first lot and the second lot are covered in flowers :) I have had masses of flowers on my runners, but not many beans until now as the sparrows have been eating the flowers! They must find something more tasty at this time of year, cos this happened last year too, I am getting masses of beans now! Chard is also doing well, and so easy to grow! Also got kale and purple sprouting, ut have to clear the catapillers daily!! Good luck with your other crops! xx

in reply to leo60

Thank you Leo and I agree its lovely to grow your own. The birds have all the berries this time of year, we have loads on our Mountain Ash.

You really do have a good selection.

I was thinking about that after I posted! We have a Rowan next door but right on the boundary, also blackberries in the hedge where they all live! At least I get beans at the end of the season πŸ‘πŸ˜‚ xx

in reply to leo60

Ah, sounds like the birds near you enjoy a real feast. Good that you have a lot of late beans.

Enjoy xx πŸ˜ŠπŸŒˆπŸ‘πŸ˜‹

Them beans look mighty good, all the better having grown them yourself. Used to grow them on our allotment in the past, taste much different when grown yourself. Suppose I could grow some in a pot what do you think?

in reply to katieoxo60

Thank you. It's easy to grow them in planters as they are contained. I had to pull a few snails out but that's all.

Growing them in a pot would be quite easy.

Dwarf beans are great to grow. No trellis or frames required. Last year we put in one section dwarf beans and behind them snow peas. The snow peas did need a frame though but so easy to cultivate in small areas.

My husband jokes that I eat more picking them fresh and raw than arrive in the kitchen for cooking!

Did you grow your carrots from seed stock or from seedlings?

Thank you Jerry. Enjoy your yellow beet, sounds delicious.

Alicia πŸ™πŸ˜ŠπŸ•‰πŸŒ±

They really are very easy to grow. Sounds like you had quite a crop. I like them raw as well.

Ah what's wrong with taste testingπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‹

Everything has been grown from seed.

They look delicious :) . I hope your other vegetable harvest grows well, and are delicious. :) Years ago a co-worker who was getting married ate these for a month so that she could fit into her size 4 wedding dress. She was originally a healthy, and beautiful size 7 :|

in reply to RLN-overcomer

Thank you and they are rather good raw, one of my granddaughters tried one raw and enjoyed it. The other planters seem to be doing well.

Size 4, that's so tiny as is a 7.😲
