254: Got any Garlic?

My 2nd favourite joke goes like....

A Duck walks in to a bar and says to the Barman "Got any bread?"
Barman "No, sorry"
Duck "Got any bread?"
Barman "No, I told you I haven't"
Duck "Got any bread?"
Barman "No - and if you ask again, I'll nail your beak to the bar"
Duck "Got any nails?"
Barman "No"
Duck "Got any bread?"

I still don't really know why it makes me laugh. But if a Duck were to pop round my house and ask if I have any Garlic, I'd be able to spare him some.
This is the first crop out of my garden. In addition to this, I've also got another dozen bulbs in my work's allotment (at which I'm the only grower - yay!) and some more in a bucket.

They all seem to have come out ok; although the bucket ones are a bit small. I tried drying them outside; but it kept raining, so I've trimmed them and put them in a (big) bowl on the kitchen window. Handy for cooking and surprisingly I've not been told off for this yet.

Maybe next year, I'll develop on to the advanced class of making strings of garlic and onions. Until then, vampires beware!


PS: Just in case you're wondering; my favourite joke is about a man with an orange for a head.
