i knew i was a real gardener when.. i ended up in hospital and was so concerned about my garden an veg that i blagged my mum sisters and girlfriend to look after them to the point that i sent lists home with them with info i needed and things they had to do..hehe
however i think the bug is catching to them (the veggie bug not meningitis lol) now they have their own bucket each growing seeds and keep coming round to help me out
