Bexley in Bloom…

Blogbrarian’s Question Time for Topical Tips…

What-ho, my old compost companions!....
Well, spring has sprung, and it’s Bexley in Bloom time again – splendid!, you cry.
Even more splendid, Bexley Libraries have a blooming marvellous collection of gardening books for your delight and delectation.

Even better news…(I spoil you, I know) - inspired by the BBC’s Gardeners' Question Time (although I do still miss old Bill Sowerbutts), the Blogbrarian has cleared his busy schedule this week to help answer your own gardening conundrums…I`m no expert (although I know a man who is), but my tomatoes have been “mentioned in despatches”, I subscribe to `Hoof and Horn` weekly, and I know one end of a gnome from another, so I`m willing to give it my best shot.

Here are a few I’ve recently been asked:
Q “How can I improve the girth of my beetroots?”
A Go “By the book”
Q “Is it acceptable to have one’s garden gnomes on view in Bexley?”
A “Perfectly”
Q “I`ve got a bad case of fungal wilting-tip spore blight in my asparagus beds…is it infectious?”
A “Arrgghhh!!!! Get away from me, now!”

We green-fingered library folk like to be able to help, when we can.


So, dear readers & weeders, if you’ve got any more questions, just let me have ‘em, using the comments thingy-dibber at the end here…
And finally, it’s a lot to ask but…can I ask you to click here? Thank you, it meant a lot to me…

TTFN, Old Chums, and “Dig On for Victory”!

ROYAL WEDDING SPECIAL SOUVENIR 'CUT OUT & KEEP' ISSUE BLOG...



With added pomp & bunting

Well, dear readers & blog-followers, I'm afraid that you'll have to make do with a very quick one this week, as I'm almost too excited to type; my fingers are all of a tremble.

It's the excitement of the Royal Wedding, you see...(I confess, I'm not averse to a bit of pomp & pageantry myself; indeed, I must dash off shortly to add an extra bit of celebratory bunting to the exterior wall of my shed, where my special vintage parsnip & radish wine is already fermenting nicely in anticipation of the big day...)


However, before I do dash off shortly, I must remind you that Bexley Libraries have some absolutely top-drawer Kate & William books available for your particular enjoyment, which will indisputably add to your appreciation of this very special event. But get in quick, dear readers, as demand is bound to be high!

And remember, this exquisitely hand-crafted limited edition celebratory blog is not available in any shops! Download and keep your own unique personal copy today!


TTFN, old chums...
