Hi Gary,,

All stamps of queen's head valud for use until 2023. At which point I think the mail service retires its carrier pigeons for coach and horses.

@GoDawgs that's the ramalet Bombetta. I have some hanging in my garage for Christmas.

This is about half of the last harvest of the season. It took me two hours to pick, sort and tidy plants. The fruit are so much larger with the rains we have had over the last few weeks, but also more splitters that I have junked. This lot is destined for paste and indoor ripening. Garotte bicolour ...

Stuff still growing up and up...but weather has definitely got cooler and we have drizzle....

Just did some paste for the first time with over 10lb of tomatoes. It's gorgeous!

MissS it is a gorgeous tomato, I am hoping to get some seed into the MMMM. How it will grow in other environments who knows, but I love it. It's a keeper next year for me. Of course, this is nothing really to do with me. It is our good friend Nico , but we havent heard much as I think he is very bu...
