As for photographing the boar, I think that the moment passed too quickly for Hubs to engage his head with the task!<br /><br />Fly, hi, nice to hear from you, and thank you so much for your advice. Hope you are well.<br /><br />Horst, we have brambles to cut, and the interior walls of the house to repair, plus veg plot work, so I think I shall maintain the fitness I am getting from hay making!Verahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235143664894609891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833961486558166275.post-21367705200097324872012-08-11T22:03:55.173+02:002012-08-11T22:03:55.173+02:00What will you do for exercise when the winter come...What will you do for exercise when the winter comes.

Deep. Put in spud. Dig second hole alongside likewise deep...soil from second hole into first...and so on until source of spuds exhausted.<br />Doesn't need earthing up.<br /><br />After flowering, scrape around with your hands, remove top layer of spuds and replace soil round the plants.<br /><br />Take up the rest later.the fly in the webhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563871975125538755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833961486558166275.post-92092017178382271642012-08-11T16:27:37.268+02:002012-08-11T16:27:37.268+02:00What a shame that Hubs did not have a camera on ha...What a shame that Hubs did not have a camera on hand it would have been a great photo. The only wild boars I have seen are on the run and gone before I have even thought about a photo.<br /><br />Sure that the potatoes will appear when the ground sees a bit of rain, that is of course if you remember them :) If not maybe they will all grow again into new plants next year :-))<br /><br />Have a good Sunday.
