O/T I reseeded some patches on my back lawn a couple of days ago. I looked out the window and the little sparrows are eating all the seed! No wonder it didn't work last time I reseeded it.
I like Richard's house.

did you not put any netting over it?? I usually put strawberry netting. Did you scarify the patch first and put some holes in with a garden fork?
Scarifying gets rid of any moss or naff grass, the holes allows the water to soak through and the netting puts the birds off 
Oooo home grown produce
At least Richard has done some proper cooking.

It's only little circles, where Keira has weed and scorched the grass, so I didn't think it was worth netting it - wrong!
yes, I did it properly, as advised by Monty Don.

Yes, because she thinks Maggie is her main competition for the money. Little does she know that Richard has already beaten her.
