I'm Back

For those of you who hadn't noticed and that's probably everyone, I have not been posting here much since January. The army had decided it was in my best interests to be on a course for that time and I've just completed it and been promoted which is a relief. It has been a very hard few months, all my preparation plans have been on hold and very little has been planted for the summer, just a few leafbeet plants, some lettuce and corgettes etc. I haven't been getting much news but even in my closeted existence for the last 6 months I can see that the price of oil is really becoming a strategic issue. We even had a presentation on it during the course for which I spent the whole time chewing my lip and trying not to blurt out.

Anyway, its good to be back and I'll try to post less inane BS in the future than I have in the past. I can't promise anything however.

You are the one that chose "mad" as part of your name. You'll just have to live up to it.

Radishes grow fast and are great boiled as well as fresh.
