   Home grown potatos are the most wonderful tasting in all the world.
   That is one thing I have missed, when in London, is enjoying the home grown potatos that my dad cultivated. Always wanted to grow some in a pot here but never remembered at the right times.

   Who would have thought that this is what it would come to after the bitterness of potato picking behind a tractor as a young lad all those years ago?!

   There’s nothing quite like getting your finger nales dirty from working you r own plot and growing your own veges! Recently as a result of a group of us at church working through Ignition, a mission training workbook developed by Mark Sayers from Forge (and developer of the uber-excellent resource – The Trouble with Paris) here in Australia, we have entered in a partnership with a local community group to start a Community Garden in a low income area of the Central Coast in NSW. Government agencies are coming on board as well to get it off the ground – gardening is an excellent stress reliever and when done with other people, a great community builder.
   Enjoy your spuds Jonny.
   Any chance fo you ever coming to Australia?

   I was thinking more along the lines of a claymation version of Mel Gibson’s flick titled “The Potato Passion.”

   How about a new rocky balboa film called “eye of the potato”?
