Still raining...

Still raining, still dull and grey outside. Had quite bad winds in the night and one of our plants blew over - no damage tho. The lettuces are loving it, they've grown about an inch, which is great considering the weather. It's still very windy and it's not supposed to get any better :-(
Our bench/ loveseat arrived today (we paid for this one only £30) Took a photo of the box 'cos it made us laugh lol!
no hope of putting it up today tho, which is a shame 'cos I love flat packs! So we're ebaying today, clearing out the junk - if you'd like to see what we're selling (or just to be nosy lol) our id is andrewsmt26.

Vegetables!

Our Carrots - grown from seed (98p)
We found an old water dispenser, cleaned it out, cut the top off and drilled a few holes in the bottom. We didnt want to put all our vegetables in the ground, we wanted to see if we could grow some in pots. A great thing about this 'pot' is that we will be able to see the carrots growing (hopefully).

Our Lettuces.
We bought some lettuces in a garden centre (£2.00) and made a makeshift veggie plot in our small garden. We're not quite organic yet (give us a chance!) hence the slug pellets. At the bottom we put a few carrots to compare with the ones in the pot and next to them are some cucumber seeds (hopefully they'll grow, fingers crossed!)
