Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Beginners luck on my part. They got absolutely flattened by the wind so I wasn't confident of getting much of anything, but real happy with how my forays into growing stuff is progressing

I've definitely had my own surprises. A couple of years back we had tomato plants growing like bushes, we could not eat them all, the dog helped himself to heaps and still there were too many.

Then there's also the courgette plant that would pump out a new one every couple of days for what felt like months, we got so sick of them. Then one day it died, like really died, the thing flattened and went brown and was pretty much gone in a couple of days. It didn't do living or dying by halves.
