    One watches enough TH-cam videos about narrowboats and the humans who live on them and one might think the only people they know are other narrowboaters as they pass by. It is nice to see you two in a very different setting with non-boater friends. Well done, you.

    I've just taken on my second allotment and have been growing my own food for over 30 years. It would be a dream to own land and live in a little cottage. Nice to see you found the comfort of a reserved wheelbarrow Jack, best way to sit in the garden. I've searched your blog but can't find the answer - what camera did you use for this video? Thanks.

      It's the real reason wheelbarrows were invented right? Extra seating for down the allotment! Thanks for watching Shaun and for your Super :) That's really kind! We haven't got a page talking about our camera as we're nowhere near experts in making videos - we use this for our camera: sovrn.co/17ey5aq
      And these two lenses:
      Sony 55mm - sovrn.co/2lfziao
      Tamron 17-28mm - sovrn.co/1fcmolh
      Just to let you know those links are affiliates :) They just give us a little commission if you decide to purchase.
      Hope that helps!

    You might like to see the mooring that Fran and Rich had - floating my boat. They are just vacating it. Lovely place to have a garden and moor up, do DIY etc when your little one arrives. Somewhere near Skipton I think.

    Happy Sunday! Another great vlog!!! My brother & sister-in-law do most of their own gardening..loads of veg and raspberry bushes that they then give to all of us. They do all theirs in raised beds now, easier on the backs. Have a lovely week, see ya next Sunday! 🥰

    Lovage has a great savoury flavour (kind of like a natural Maggi), great for soups and stews.
    Just be aware that it's a perennial plant that can grow to 2m high if you let it!
    If you want to try cooking something interesting with chard, search for a Polish "botwinka" soup recipe. These days it's often made using whole young beets but the original uses chard.

    • @thistinylife
      @thistinylife  ปีที่แล้ว

      I had no idea it could get that big! Thank you for the chard tip, we'll have to try that out! The leaves do have a similar taste to beet leaves, I guess they must be related??

    • @YaaLFH
      @YaaLFH ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@thistinylife Yes, they grow huge, the one in my Nan's garden was taller than everyone in the family 😁
      And yes, chard is very closely related to beets, if I remember correctly it's the original plant out of which beets were bred to have the large bulbous root in addition to pretty and tasty leaves.

      @thistinylife  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Steve - we don't have any control over how many ads appear. They're automatically placed by YT... As much as we'd love to not have any ads something's got to buy the mooring ropes 😂 If we worked out our day rate from these vlogs we'd barely be able to afford twine for our mooring lines 😅😅
