For my Daddy....

Apparently my dad is very jealous of my speedy tomatoes - his are taking their time and just about at the 'pretty flowers' stage whilst I'm very near to having tomatoes for my salad.  Being the lovely daughter that I am I thought I'd do a whole post of tasty tomato pictures just to show him what's still to come (or praps just rub it in a bit more ;p).... dad, this one's for you! 

The Indoor tomato - recovering well from its fall

The hanging tomatoes almost have more fruit than leaves!

Different plant... honest!

The grow bag tomatoes are still all green

And finally the slowest of the lot - the 'extra' tomatos are limping along - the poor things managed to blow over in the wind and lost some branches.  I think they'll make it but they are definately looking worse for wear at the moment.  Just to clarify that bag is *very* heavy; I can kind of shuffle-walk it around if need be but that's about it - the force it must take to topple it would be pretty considerable; when I said we'd had  some bad weather lately I really did mean it!
