Tears Of A Clown

Today my Annabel potatoes (I think the seed catalogues & EU law may spell it differently) were dug up from the vegetable garden along with my special small onions that I want to pickle in Malt Vinegar to make classic English Ploughman's Lunch. Neither malt vinegar or this style of pickled onions are available in German supermarkets.

Annabel has caused me tears in the past, but today Angie did. In the evening she wanted to cook something needing onions and as we had run out of standard big one's took a large double handful of my prized possessions drying in the sunshine. I won't even try to recall here what my reaction was when I found out!
