"Max Bygraves later played Archie's tutor, with the catchphrases "I've arrived, and to prove it, I'm here" and "That's a good idea ... son!". *

weak cycling mojo this morning, late out and rode the direct route to the cafe, felt better after an hour gossiping in the cafe so took the scenic route home, basically used the usual route I'd use on the way out but in reverse, ended up with a nice little 46 mile bimble. It stayed dry whilst I was out but its now going black over Bills mothers, which is great timing.

When I googled it, it said Peter Brough (the earlier Archie) but other sites tell me that is wrong and it was indeed Max.
So @Dirk and others, I agopolise and lock myself in the cupboard

Did you dig a bean trench? The runner bean plants over on the allotment are giving lots of beans now. I dug a bean trench earlier in the year, lined it with newspapers, then threw in all manner of stuff like potato and carrot peelings, rotting or composting vegetation. When that was done, it got levelled off with earth and left for a good number of weeks. The beans were planted over the trench and the roots grow into these nutrients. It seems to have made quite a difference.
