Welcome to a little green island in cyberspace!

Not the Isle of Man

Welcome! You've just reached the shores of my little green cyber-island. Made of flotsam and jetsam, colonized by sea beans and green sentiments, the island has no name:

OR: Stupid things I have done leading to misfortunes I wouldn't wish on anybody else PLUS things I found out that you might want to know too...

"I decided earlier on this summer to blow some of my hard-won, precious thimbleful of worm compost (how do they reduce so much crud to so little compost?) on growing some salad. Verdicts: 1) I have finally given up on ever growing satisfactory sweet peppers. After years of toil, shattered hopes and cranberry-sized peppers, I must finally admit that the season here is just too short, even with the help of makeshift polytunnel type arrangements. 2) "Micro-greens" are really good, and seem to grow without too much effort. Rocket got eaten by snails, but lambs' lettuce seemed to survive every plant predator around, growing luxuriant and blemish-free. Very tasty. But gone so quickly... 3)Tigerella tomatoes. Beautiful stripey toms with nice flavour. Snag: they grow like a small forest - I now need a machete to get to the dustbins... "
