It is simply easier when it comes to lugging bags of compost and heavy pots to the end of the garden, especially if you have a very long one.\r\n\r\nIn my case, the allotment where my sister and I grow our veg and flowers, is a few hundred yards along the lane. How tired we would be if we had to carry the cushions for our fold-up chairs and all our bottles of essential Prosecco.\r\n\r\nMy new pink Barbie barrow has plenty of room to put all our tools, bottles of beer and sandwiches.

The hot air will help decompose your Lidl veg peelings.\r\n\r\nIt is very gratifying to receive all your responses to my column. It\'s surprising how ordinary garden writers fail to address basic problems. For instance, they will tell you to put bits of broken clay flower pot in the bottom of a clay flower pot to stop plant roots sitting in a little wet patch.\r\n\r\nBut what if you don\'t have a broken pot?  They don\'t tell you!\r\n\r\nBut I will! You simply smash a pot on the patio and put those bits in another flower pot and then break another one on and on until you have all your little gaps filled.\r\n\r\nAt this point, in the interests of open journalism, I should perhaps declare that I own shares in a flower-pot making company, which is operated by a bank in Panama.\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/broken-flower-pot.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/broken-flower-pot.jpg" alt="broken-flower-pot" width="640" height="480" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3390" /></a><i>Gone to pot: breaking up is not hard to do</center></i><Br><br>\r\n\r\nPeople often ask me if I talk to my plants, a procedure made famous by Prince Charles when he was a young gardener.

We must all play our part to avert a tragedy."\r\n\r\nLike The Suffolk Gazette on Facebook NOW! <iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden; height: 21px;" src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fsuffolkgazette&amp;width&amp;layout=button_count&amp;action=like&amp;show_faces=false&amp;share=true&amp;height=21" width="300" height="150" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/buy-us-a-beer/">Please support my running costs by clicking here and buying me a beer!</a>\r\n[olimometer id=1]', 'Join campaign to save ants from sugar', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '3401-revision-v1', '', '', '2016-04-18 11:51:11', '2016-04-18 11:51:11', '', 3401, 'http://www.suffolkgazette.com/news/3401-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

She was a lady after my own heart, often to be found in her walled garden, caressing her peaches and licking cherries.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIsabel was a member of the renowned Cobbold brewing family, and in 1897 she married J B Chevallier of Aspall Cyder fame. Between them they left a heritage enjoyed by hen and stag parties the world over.\r\n\r\nWhat is not so well known is that Isabel was also an Ipswich Town supporter and spent many hours trying to design a garden in their famous blue and white colours.\r\n\r\nThis week I finished the task for her.\r\n\r\nBedding is one of those skills I am an expert at. I love it when the frosts are gone and I can get out in the garden with a good solid dibber in my hand. In and out I poke it with gay abandon.\r\n\r\nThen I drop in the seeds or seedlings or ready grown plants from the royal plant suppliers B & Q.\r\n\r\nI am also a brilliant landscaper, as my photo shows.\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/itfc-garden-e1461311810190.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/itfc-garden-e1461311810190.jpg" alt="itfc-garden" width="325" height="433" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3431" /></a><i>Blue army: Ipswich floral heaven</center></i><br><br>\r\n\r\nI taught for many years at the Gardeners’ International Training School (GITS) where I tutored Alan Titmarsh and Monty Don but they clearly didn’t have any natural abilities and could never match my expertise.\r\n\r\nTo achieve my ITFC look, you need to swirl a mixture of the following: Blue plant, white plant, blue plant, white plant, blue plant, white plant. Follow that with another taller row of blue plant, white plant, blue plant, white plant, blue plant, white plant. In the hanging baskets pop a blue plant, white plant, blue plant and white plant.\r\n\r\nAdd a blue-and-white-striped deckchair and a blue-and-white plant pot, a bottle of  Blue Nun (£4.50 from ASDA) and a white bread sandwich to fulfil your Ipswich Town dreams.\r\n\r\nBut beware of weeds getting into a formation and destroying all your hard work. The most common is that in my picture <i>below</i>, the Dandelion (Carrowmum Religatis) which, with its canary yellow and green presence will spoil your display. It needs to be pulled out and slung on the bonfire.\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/yello-green-flower-e1461312061741.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/yello-green-flower-e1461312061741.jpg" alt="yello-green-flower" width="500" height="375" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3432" /></a><i>Sickly weeds: Get rid of these invasive yellow and green nasties</center></i><br><br>\r\n\r\nYou may want some terracing in your garden and perhaps floodlights for a bit of late night action in the penalty area.\r\n\r\nAmong the plants I would recommend are blue and white lobelia, alliums, Alfius Ramsium, Bobbium Robsonius and Michaelmas McCarthinum. They need a great deal of support to stop them wilting before the season ends.\r\n\r\nMarcusinius Evansias is an elusive plant which thrives in rich conditions but you probably can’t afford it.\r\n\r\nMy Ipswich Town garden is in a league of its own and I have no objections to you copying the plan.

The future of treacle mining in Suffolk is secure."\r\n\r\nTreacle mining is highly dangerous, with regular rock falls in the shafts and tunnels built under the Suffolk countryside.\r\n\r\nBecause of the danger, the exact location of the BTI mine is a closely-guarded secret in order to prevent local children from treacle scrumping.\r\n\r\nThe Suffolk Gazette agreed to only show a road sign to the mine, rather than reveal its address, about 200 yards on the left down Blaxhall Church Lane.\r\n\r\nLike us on Facebook: <iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden; height: 21px;" src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fsuffolkgazette&amp;width&amp;layout=button_count&amp;action=like&amp;show_faces=false&amp;share=true&amp;height=21" width="300" height="150" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/buy-us-a-beer/">Buy us a beer (please)!</a>', 'Suffolk treacle mine makes record profit', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '1691-revision-v1', '', '', '2016-04-28 13:56:40', '2016-04-28 13:56:40', '', 1691, 'http://www.suffolkgazette.com/news/1691-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

Many do it themselves but I have always got a man in.\r\n\r\nA greenhouse, of course, is very desirable and perfect for raising seedlings and keeping a continuous supply of salad greens and tomatoes.\r\n\r\nI am growing the well-known tomato variety Ailsa Craig. I thought that was a busty 1950s television hostess, but Ailsa Craig is actually a volcanic island in the Firth of Forth and the tomatoes hark back to the days when Scotland was famous the world over for growing tomatoes, not deep-frying Mars Bars or getting your hair cut like The Krankies.\r\n\r\nThere is something very satisfying about growing your own crops. I recently saw a video on Facebook about a school in America where children grow their own school dinners.\r\n\r\n<b>Seeds</b>\r\n\r\nIf some kid in the USA can do it, then anyone can. Even you Suffolk Gazette readers! Simply buy a packet of seeds (you can get them in all good garden centres) and snip the top open with a pair of scissors.\r\n\r\nYou will find the seeds are very tiny and there won\'t be many of them, leaving you wondering why you paid £3.99 for something you are probably going to kill anyway. Then follow the instructions on the back of the packet about when to plant and how far to stick them in.\r\n\r\nIf you can\'t be bothered with seeds, then try the less fallible plug plants and pop them into your John Inman’s compost. Water them  when you go out for a fag. It’s what healthy living is all about.\r\n\r\nFor inspiration, just take a look at the magnificent cauliflower in my photo. It was raised by my sister on our allotment. Look at the size of it compared to a packet of Rothmans. It could easily feed a family of four.\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/cauliflower-e1461917963480.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/cauliflower-e1461917963480.jpg" alt="cauliflower" width="777" height="583" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3497" /></a><I>My giant cauliflower</center></i><br><br>\r\n\r\nAnd our Brussels sprouts, pictured just below the cauli, were as big as peas.\r\n\r\nTaking into consideration the cost of the seeds, the compost, the plant food, and the man hours, these organic, tasty vegetables cost about £85. A bit pricier than the shops, you might say, but we know how much care went into them and that no harmful pesticides were used.\r\n\r\nWe keep birds off the vegetable plot with old CDs tied on string to distract them. My sister finds that her old David Essex and Phil Collins ones would deter even the most persistent pigeon.\r\n\r\nIf that fails, we just chuck cider bottles at them and yell at them to feck off.\r\n\r\nI read this week that peppermint (AfterEightus) and rosemary (roastius lambium) can boost your memory. I grew some but I can’t remember where!\r\n\r\n<b>Jobs to do this week</b>\r\n\r\n- Trim your candytuft to encourage fresh new growth.\r\n\r\n- Pop Basil (Fawltium Towerius) in with tomatoes to deter whitefly.\r\n\r\n- Check that the mower is good to go. You may need to nip out for some lubricant.\r\n\r\n- Tend those baby radishes (Burpus Repeatia). I recently went to a restaurant in Bury St Edmunds where they served them with the fresh young leaves attached. They were peppery and delicious. So if you grow your own, eat the lot. As the plants get older, like those in the shops, the leaves can be too tough and furry and nobody wants to munch on a big old hairy thing.\r\n\r\n<b>Your questions answered</b>\r\n\r\nPlease keep sending me your comments. The Editor of the Suffolk Gazette says that Anita Bush is going down really well. And he should know.\r\n\r\nNow for the answers to your problems.\r\n\r\n* Mr R H from Felixstowe: It sounds to me as though you have a fungal problem with your peonies. I would go back to the fuchsia. Or book an appointment with the Ipswich STD clinic.\r\n\r\n* Miss Hancock: I’m glad it’s looking lusher than ever and glad you enjoy my titbits. I learned most of my tricks from the Royal Whoreticultural Society.\r\n\r\n* Mr P F from Stowmarket: Try the Garden Supplies Specialist in Soho for the replacement of your waterbutt plug. They do them in all sizes to prevent leaks and there is even a very fetching glow-in-the-dark one for the more adventurous.\r\n\r\nThat\'s it for this week - have a great Bank Holiday weekend!\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/anita-bush-signature-e1459579303945.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/anita-bush-signature-e1459579303945.jpg" alt="anita-bush-signature" width="125" height="94" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3289" /></a>\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/buy-us-a-beer/">Please support my running costs by clicking here and buying me a beer!</a>\r\n[olimometer id=1]', 'It\'s time for your dream erection', '', 'publish', 'closed', 'closed', '', 'time-dream-erection', '', '', '2016-05-10 17:25:12', '2016-05-10 17:25:12', '', 0, 'http://www.suffolkgazette.com/?p=3496', 0, 'post', '', 0);

I thought that was a busty 1950s television hostess, but Ailsa Craig is actually a volcanic island in the Firth of Forth and the tomatoes hark back to the days when Scotland was famous the world over for growing tomatoes, not deep-frying Mars Bars or getting your hair cut like The Krankies.\r\n\r\nThere is something very satisfying about growing your own crops. I recently saw a video on Facebook about a school in America where children grow their own school dinners.\r\n\r\n<b>Seeds</b>\r\n\r\nIf some kid in the USA can do it, then anyone can. Even you Suffolk Gazette readers! Simply buy a packet of seeds (you can get them in all good garden centres) and snip the top open with a pair of scissors.\r\n\r\nYou will find the seeds are very tiny and there won\'t be many of them, leaving you wondering why you paid £3.99 for something you are probably going to kill anyway. Then follow the instructions on the back of the packet about when to plant and how far to stick them in.\r\n\r\nIf you can\'t be bothered with seeds, then try the less fallible plug plants and pop them into your John Inman’s compost. Water them  when you go out for a fag. It’s what healthy living is all about.\r\n\r\nFor inspiration, just take a look at the magnificent cauliflower in my photo. It was raised by my sister on our allotment. Look at the size of it compared to a packet of Rothmans. It could easily feed a family of four.\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/cauliflower-e1461917963480.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/cauliflower-e1461917963480.jpg" alt="cauliflower" width="777" height="583" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3497" /></a><I>My giant cauliflower</center></i><br><br>\r\n\r\nAnd our Brussels sprouts, pictured just below the cauli, were as big as peas.\r\n\r\nTaking into consideration the cost of the seeds, the compost, the plant food, and the man hours, these organic, tasty vegetables cost about £85. A bit pricier than the shops, you might say, but we know how much care went into them and that no harmful pesticides were used.\r\n\r\nWe keep birds off the vegetable plot with old CDs tied on string to distract them. My sister finds that her old David Essex and Phil Collins ones would deter even the most persistent pigeon.\r\n\r\nIf that fails, we just chuck cider bottles at them and yell at them to feck off.\r\n\r\nI read this week that peppermint (AfterEightus) and rosemary (roastius lambium) can boost your memory. I grew some but I can’t remember where!\r\n\r\n<b>Jobs to do this week</b>\r\n\r\n- Trim your candytuft to encourage fresh new growth.\r\n\r\n- Pop Basil (Fawltium Towerius) in with tomatoes to deter whitefly.\r\n\r\n- Check that the mower is good to go. You may need to nip out for some lubricant.\r\n\r\n- Tend those baby radishes (Burpus Repeatia). I recently went to a restaurant in Bury St Edmunds where they served them with the fresh young leaves attached. They were peppery and delicious. So if you grow your own, eat the lot. As the plants get older, like those in the shops, the leaves can be too tough and furry and nobody wants to munch on a big old hairy thing.\r\n\r\n<b>Your questions answered</b>\r\n\r\nPlease keep sending me your comments. The Editor of the Suffolk Gazette says that Anita Bush is going down really well. And he should know.\r\n\r\nNow for the answers to your problems.\r\n\r\n* Mr R H from Felixstowe: It sounds to me as though you have a fungal problem with your peonies. I would go back to the fuchsia. Or book an appointment with the Ipswich STD clinic.\r\n\r\n* Miss Hancock: I’m glad it’s looking lusher than ever and glad you enjoy my titbits. I learned most of my tricks from the Royal Whoreticultural Society.\r\n\r\n* Mr P F from Stowmarket: Try the Garden Supplies Specialist in Soho for the replacement of your waterbutt plug. They do them in all sizes to prevent leaks and there is even a very fetching glow-in-the-dark one for the more adventurous.\r\n\r\nThat\'s it for this week - have a great Bank Holiday weekend!\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/anita-bush-signature-e1459579303945.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/anita-bush-signature-e1459579303945.jpg" alt="anita-bush-signature" width="125" height="94" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3289" /></a>\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/buy-us-a-beer/">Please support my running costs by clicking here and buying me a beer!</a>\r\n[olimometer id=1]', 'It\'s time for your dream erection', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '3496-revision-v1', '', '', '2016-04-29 08:31:25', '2016-04-29 08:31:25', '', 3496, 'http://www.suffolkgazette.com/news/3496-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

When I got back to the bar, I could not see Heinz in the bath. I assumed he must have given up and got out, or perhaps he was in the lavatory.\r\n\r\n"Thinking back now it was all very ironic, because I remember Don\'t Leave Me This Way by the Communards was playing on the jukebox at the time.\r\n\r\n"He was still missing at 8pm when the bar was very busy. Then one of the regulars thought to check the actual bath. It was terribly distressing when the customer rolled up his sleeve and put his arm in the bath, only to find poor Heinz in there."\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/baked-beans-e1446110207773.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/baked-beans-540x330.jpg" alt="baked-beans" width="540" height="330" class="aligncenter size-thumb_540x330 wp-image-1979" /></a></center><center><i>Silent but deadly: baked beans</center></i><br><br>\r\n\r\nCoroner Gaskin told the inquest, which was attended by Mr Muller\'s wife Deborah, that a post-mortem revealed Mr Muller had died from drowning, and that his body showed no signs of physical injury.\r\n\r\nGiving a verdict of "misadventure", the coroner said: "The pathologist report concludes he must have fallen asleep and simply slipped silently under the beans and sauce.\r\n\r\n"I hope Mr Muller\'s family can draw some comfort from the fact that his death will be a warning to other charity fund-raisers not to push themselves to the limits of endurance.\r\n\r\n"And also of course they must be pleased that a JustGiving page set up on the internet for his stunt has since raised £4,500, far more than the £300 he was hoping for."\r\n\r\nMrs Muller was too upset to speak to the Suffolk Gazette outside the court, but neighbour and family friend Jack Bentley said: "It\'s such a terrible shame because Heinz was a lovely and lively character.\r\n\r\n"He was so full of beans."\r\n\r\n* * * *\r\n\r\nLike The Suffolk Gazette on Facebook now! <iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden; height: 21px;" src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fsuffolkgazette&amp;width&amp;layout=button_count&amp;action=like&amp;show_faces=false&amp;share=true&amp;height=21" width="300" height="150" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/buy-us-a-beer/">Please support our running costs by clicking here and buying us a beer!</a>\r\n\r\n<a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/purchase.php" target="_blank">Advertise on the Suffolk Gazette - click here for (very cheap) rates</a>', 'Man drowned in a bath full of baked beans', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '1974-revision-v1', '', '', '2016-04-30 11:00:50', '2016-04-30 11:00:50', '', 1974, 'http://www.suffolkgazette.com/news/1974-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

And there\'s nothing more pleasing to my eye in the middle of the bed than the sight of a good red-hot poker.\r\n\r\nAn annual on the other hand, is a book that normally comes out at Christmas for Beano or Star Wars fans, and often has a selection of short stories and a little maze to find your way through with a felt-tip pen.\r\n\r\nI\'ve been busy this week preparing my plant labels.

Favourite perennials are foxgloves and hollyhocks, cone-flowers, delphiniums and lupins. And there\'s nothing more pleasing to my eye in the middle of the bed than the sight of a good red-hot poker.\r\n\r\nAn annual on the other hand, is a book that normally comes out at Christmas for Beano or Star Wars fans, and often has a selection of short stories and a little maze to find your way through with a felt-tip pen.\r\n\r\nI\'ve been busy this week preparing my plant labels. I make them from used lolly sticks. My personal favourite is the white chocolate Magnum. I needed 54 and after completing the job I can hardly squeeze through the greenhouse door. But think of all the money I saved instead of buying ready-made labels from Wyevale\'s!\r\n\r\nI\'ve also been tending my young plants I grew on from my seedlings after hardening off. I found some short and curly ones in the shed, then remembered they were parsley.\r\n\r\n<b>Jobs to do this week</b>\r\n\r\nJobs that you should be doing this week are planting your dahlia tubers now that the frost has gone. Dahlias and asters are back in fashion and make wonderful cut flowers, as do the underrated poor old carnations. With the dahlias, I like a good spiky one while my husband likes a tight Pom Pom.\r\n\r\n<b>Grappling with plums</b>\r\n\r\nI notice many of your questions are about issues with your plums. If you want to grow some, get yourself along to a good plumsman. I can recommend The Julian Clary Garden Centre off the A14 in Nacton.\r\n\r\nPlums come in all shapes and sizes, with the most famous English one being The Victoria, named after Queen Victoria who liked to grab Prince Albert by his in the garden at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight. They had nine children as a result.\r\n\r\n<center><a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/pair-of-plums.jpg"><img src="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/pair-of-plums.jpg" alt="pair of plums" width="960" height="719" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3551" /></a><i>A juicy pair of plums, ripe and ready for pulling off</center></i><br><br>\r\n\r\nI love plums but often find the supermarket imports disappointing with a dark mouldy centre where they have been chilled in transit.
