@PlotlinesTim: Great fun playing at being Mr Bloom this morning with a visiting friend's tiddlers. #allotments #mrbloom #justmissingthesongs


When I close my eyes, I see sawfly.


Fighting off the sawfly larvae on the gooseberry bush one wave at a time.


My toddler's take on swatting flies: "Daddy clap hands with fly". #innocenceofyouth


First rhubarb of the year picked this afternoon, first rhubarb clafoutis of the year scoffed this evening. #allotments #springatlast


Last year's PSB were about 5ft tall and prolific. Must make sure next year's are too. I love the stuff.


Pigeons and the weather nearly killed this year's PSB, but we'll get a serving. #allotments #PSB #betterthannothing

@aplottoofar Thanks for the offer. If I lose any more to the marauding Toddzilla, then I might come back to you...


Risk of frost damage if I plant my tomatoes out (under plastic), and toddler damage if I keep them at home. #dilemma #allotments #tomatoes


@aplottoofar Ah, but will they go back to the normal Felix now that they've tasted the good stuff? #marketingploy


@aplottoofar I wonder how long I can spend thinking it over (over a glass of wine, of course) before I have to make a decision.


An offer from the wife: if I give up alcohol for the rest of the year, I can spend the money saved on a polytunnel. Hmmm... #allotments


I know the drainage on our plot isn't the best, but this new weed has still taken me by surprise. #allotments #weeds

Introduced 20-month-old daughter to stroking tomato seedlings then sniffing her hand. Very keen and identified smell. Promising. #allotments


It's a Labour landslide here in South Yorkshire, thanks to the support of less than 7.5% of eligible voters. #democracyfail


Had to change chutney recipe due to baby scoffing the cooking apples. Will be a couple of weeks before I find out whether the batch is okay.


@aplottoofar Yes, pretty sure. Don't know of anything else that causes blotches on the leaves like that. Do you?


@aplottoofar It's only about half of them. Kestrel and Red Duke of York effected. Pink Fir Apple (surprisingly) seem ok. #allotment #blight


Blight has struck. Out come the potatoes... #allotment #blight


@aplottoofar Musicality aside, singing "God Save the [British] Queen" at half a million French republicans was a bit out of order.
