    Been using it in soups & chutneys, did sneak a few crinkle cut ones in with Willows chips, but they take longer to cook than spuds.

    Going to try making Crisps with one:dbgrtmb:

        And You Tube, some of the Anonymous comments on there sicken me to my very gusset.

        You mustn't try to bypass the filters on here either, by changing Bother to B**her or Balderdash to B@lderd##h if you see what I mean.

        You could get in trouble for that:thumbsup:

        Well, yesterday, with everything frozen solid & a bitter, sleety wind, I thought that would have been it for a few weeks on the plot.

        What a difference a day makes. Everything thawed out today, finished the winter digging. Paid a visit to the Garden Centre & stocked up with seeds.

        After seeing the Seagulls have it away with all the food on the birdtable in seconds yesterday, decided to put a little roof on it to keep em off.

        Give the little birdies a chance.

              Darn Hills are covered in Peacocks, always going off:DOH:

              If you click the location in my signature, you can have a look around West Bay Penny:thumbsup:

              The Caravan/plot is a mile from the sea, but you can still hear the waves pounding at night when the sea is big, the sound travels up the valley.

                I keep wondering about collecting roadkill for a bird table at my plot:

                Hey Ziggy. Only just seen this. I loved following the walking stick cabbage thread, mine reached about a foot and a half, I'm letting it grow on. :D

                If you've never seen me I musn't have been logged in.

                That sugar beet is a monster. :loll:
