Matron grows vegetables and fruit in a Hampshire garden. I've been growing veggies since I was knee high to a grasshopper. Some traditional varieties and old favourites as well as new ideas. I share my garden with my allotment assistant Daisy the Labrador. On Twitter as @MatronsVeggies
Walked my socks off in Manhattan yesterday! Up the Empire state building, lunch in Grand Central Station and more views from the top of the Rockerfeller tower. Walked down Broadway to Times Square and refreshed myself at Starbucks! More when I get back!

I was born 20 yards from our allotment. My parents used to 'dig for victory' and never got out of the habit. I grew up on an allotment, so growing veggies is a way of life. I am also qualified as a dog behaviourist and I have set up my own business, www.blackdogdna.com

Sounds like you are enjoying "The Big Apple".
Hope your garden is hanging in there while you are away.
Sounds like a great day! I would have gone for an iced coffee after that much walking. Have a great trip back. Look forward to seeing some photos.
Petunia - actually I had a Venti Peach iced tea!
Ah so that's what your doing!
A very quick run through of an exiting day! Cheers, ~bangchik
Hope you are having a great time
Hope the allotment doesn't seem like a let-down on your return. It sounds like you are really making the most of your trip.
You obviously remembered to pack your comfy shoes!
Had to turn round mid Atlantic yesterday to meet a CoastGuard helecopter from Newfoundland who landed on board to pick up a passenger who was seriously ill. Now back on course at a rate of knots to get us back to Southampton on Saturday.
Happy Sailing Matron! Glad you had a fun day in Manhatten. My daughter is heading there in about two weeks to meet up with a friend. It's a fun place to visit.
