Slow and Steady Wins the Race

It would appear that other members of PAMELA are currently streets ahead in terms of the size of the veg. I know where I have gone wrong and am looking forward to next year already. Still there is still a ray of hope for this year, she is still growing an inch a day in all directions.


maybe I will start singing to it?

Gourd Lord (oh there's more...)

A recent phone call to the BBC has rectified any misunderstandings. I am now growing pumpkins (not marrows) and I am entered into the nation pumpkin show.
I heard Terry Wogan and friends the other day on Radio 2 discussing how much they were looking forward to the show next year. If I was n't nervous enough about showing my wares to the nation but now I have images of Tezza at home with a sherry squaking eurovision style japes at me puny pumpkin.
Since my last post I have severed all the weaker and smaller pumpkins, a kind of ethnic cleansing, to gear all the power to into the one remaining uber pumpkin.
Anyway here are some recent pictures (notice the giant not included to keep the fellow competitors guessing).
