I got my bike trailer from EbaY & it came from The Netherlands - I wouldn't recommend this route as it was a lot of hassle to get a problem solved & it didn't even come with a hitch to attach to bike! I would highly recommend http://www.bikesandtrailers.com/ who were a godsend in my hour of need and sold me the perfect hitch so that I was able to connect trailer to bike - they sell exactly the same trailer - The one I have is called The Big Boy and it's perfect for so many things. It was intended to be kept at the lotty but we use it so much at home too that it now stays at home & carts all our grass clippings and kitchen waste to the compost heap!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180612522194223105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843947982482244158.post-59768856834235453392009-09-05T08:27:13.775+01:002009-09-05T08:27:13.775+01:00I love your blog and Im always checking in to see ...I love your blog and Im always checking in to see how you are doing.<br />I hope you dont mind me asking but where did you purchase your bike trolley...Is there an online shop that sells them?Emma@christmascupboardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07939624431408633740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843947982482244158.post-74837223107439137682009-08-11T22:28:58.778+01:002009-08-11T22:28:58.778+01:00Ali, that's a great harvest of onions you have...Ali, that's a great harvest of onions you have there. Isn't it so satisfying to see all the hard work come to fruition. I have enough onion and garlic to last me into next year. I only grew 2 cucumber plants in the green house, the burp-less ones, very tasty and large. <br />I am planning on trying to come and visit your lottie one day as Austin's sister lives in Kenley, so not that far from you, and we visit her every so often.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540591998909116816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843947982482244158.post-88118824787022091362009-08-11T18:26:06.629+01:002009-08-11T18:26:06.629+01:00Hello Mrs Jones,
Long time no hear!
I am glad you ...Hello Mrs Jones,<br />Long time no hear!<br />I am glad you liked the Maltese recipe. I have experimented further and stuffed one with a chilli con carne I had in the freezer - topped with grated cheese it was yummy.<br />Sainsbury's has a french bean recipe with pecan nuts - that's delicious. I will try to find it and email it to you.<br />Ali :0)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180612522194223105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843947982482244158.post-67807281433075875002009-08-11T18:10:24.347+01:002009-08-11T18:10:24.347+01:00Cucumber plants grow like monsters outdoors these ...Cucumber plants grow like monsters outdoors these days. I've just got back from my plopment with an entire sainsbury's carrier bag full to bursting with Cobra climbing french beans (dunno what I'm going to do with them all!) as well as about a dozen small-ish cucumbers. So tomorrow I'm going to have a go at making sweet dill pickles with them. BTW, I made your maltese stuffed marrow last week and it was very yummy!Mrs Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289121990808465890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843947982482244158.post-82650068166537588782009-08-11T14:01:01.374+01:002009-08-11T14:01:01.374+01:00Kella - it's the first time I have grown them ...Kella - it's the first time I have grown them so I didn't realise!

19 cucumber plan...Well done on your onion harvest.<br /><br />19 cucumber plant, what were you thinking :) I normally grow four plants for a family of five and always have too many so this year I have grown only two and still have too many. But I'm afraid to grow only one as Sod's law the plant would probably die.Kellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007237364629419063noreply@blogger.com
