tortoises
Sunflower update time. I am feeling a little more optimistic now. Prof. Willis has peaked already, but mine are still growing strong! They have reached a mighty... (wait for it) 65cm now, and show no signs of stopping.
Just for a sense of scale, Steve kindly posed alongside them. He was chewing grass, but his evil grimace amused me.
Dad's sunflowers have bitten the dust, much to my mum's amusement (and probably handy work). He had called them the tortoises due to their slow start, and predicted inevitable win. Now, in memory of his flowers, mine are adopting the tortoise philosophy.

Incidentally the tortoise philosophy doesn't involve the same fate as dad's sunflowers. His were just unfortunate.

That is a brilliant cat expression. Cats seem to eat grass just before being sick. Why do they not learn? Your sunflowers are still making progress. Mine are still growing and not showing a lot of sign of flowering yet. Could one of us beat Tom after all??

Yes: spot on with cat grass-sicking comment. I wonder if it's the equivalent of our chewing a piece of wrigleys after a meal or something. Followed by sick.
How big are your sunflowers now?
Prof - are you quaking in your boots?!
