Life Is A Pop Of The Cherry (Tomato)

 Relying on the tips of my padded pink fingers helping anything (especially botanical) to grow is usually a no-no.  It's not for the want of careful planning, construction and attention either, but my short-yet-successful list of things I do manage to grow fairly trouble-free include foetuses, leg hair, sea monkeys and impatience.  So hopefully you understand my utter joy at these pictures:

The Cheaper Half bet me £10 back in May that I'd fail in growing some cherry tomatoes (from seed) before the end of summer.   In all,  I  managed to grow 8 of the little buggers, half of which will meet their
demise tonight between two slices of hot buttered toast.  Sadly, however, TCH wrestled the phone off me as I was trying to get the local press involved.........¡
