Regulars here, will be aware that I am very into my potato varieties.
Yes, these are the actual potatoes from Tones garden
These days, Wireless Tone has gone back to nature. He's doing a regular "Good Life" over in Bloxwich and has been on the phone bragging about the size of his radishes and cucumbers.
Now, his potatoes have cropped and last night he bought me some and a few sprigs of fresh mint, both just picked from the garden. My natural impatience got the better of me, so I cooked a few, just to sample them and they were indeed delicious, a little like a Cypriot potato (light flavour and fluffy texture).
Now lucky me, I also have a big bag of large potatoes sent over by Anita my sister in law and even MORE salmon. I've developed such a liking for salmon, I have an overwhelming temptation to swim back once a year, to where I was born... Of course, in these frugal times, it is all welcome.
Personally, I can't wait for Tone to take up pig and cattle farming.
