I beg your pardon, I never promised you a herb garden

I am however going to provide one. Although it won't be solely restricted to herbs it will indeed feature them.

My first horticultural dabblings (ignoring the attempts at creating Salford's first orangery with a clementine tree) are proving marginally successful, in that there are definite shoots a showing for my Chilli and Parsley plants.

I aim to follow this with a potato pot and cherry tomatoes. I will be giving away the fruits/veg of my labour upon fruiting, and where possible i'm aiming to go organic. I shall be updating this blog with all my successes and failures as much for my own enjoyment as anything else

Wembley

£24.50 for the ticket. Reasonable I'm sure you'll agree.

2600 toilets making it the building with the most toilets in the world, given that it is actually located in the worlds biggest toilet there is a certain irony there - and by that I am specifically targetting Wembley and not London which does have the saving grace of a good public transport system and one or two sites of interest.

whilst visiting one of the said 2600 toilets on Sunday it became clear where the budget had been blown. Who seriously needs nicely finished cubicles and expensive vinyl flooring when the majority who attend are as willing to find relief in a hand basin or nearby corner?

anyway "The Wembley Experience" © didn't exactly blow me away, yeah it's nice and all but shouldn't a National Stadium be accessible for the majority of the Nation? pointless argument now I suppose but the hangover has dispersed so I need something to be upset about.

Dimitar

Berbatov is still a class act.

I just wish he looked like he cared.
