Hi Dan, some of his videos are quite funny, even the missus giggles at them :)

I'm well thanks, apart from fainting for the first time in my life while I was stood at the loo yesterday evening. One minute I was 'taking care off business' then next I was laid on bathroom floor with missus and daughter stood over me. My daughter was freaking out and screaming bless her. I've banged my shoulder on something on the way down and bruised my tailbone.

How's tricks with you?

Cheers,
Robster.

Oooo that's not good to hear, and not particularly a place/task id want to faint at... hope you feeling better! good thanks just full of busy 😀

Hi Dan, yeah almost better now thanks :)

Can I ask a veggie question?
Those runner beans I'm growing at mums house, a lot of flowers it are dying and completely dropping off leaving stalk/stumps. I'm not sure if they've been pollinated then dying back of if something is wrong. Mum noticed it first and despite her dementia she did grow beans for many years and so I'm a bit conflicted at the moment. They've had two liquid feeds in the past 2 months.

Cheers,
Rob.

Good to hear your on the mend Rob.

With out seeing a picture of it, it's hard to say but the weather we are experiencing will be a big factor its so hot/dry a lot of my own plants aren't happy and either not setting fruit or going to seed. Things like pea's and beans don't usually like this sort of heat and will flower but not set pods so i don't think its anything to worry to much but more a downside of this tropical weather we are experiencing. My cucumbers are doing the same its its definitely frustrating

Thanks Dan, I'm happy it's not probably me that's the cause :)
The Potatoes (from last years seed pod harvest), one vine has produced flowers already but they've also died off with no hint of seed pods :(
