Hmmmm, 'Fork Handles' rarely drops off the 'Newest conversations' list (eyes right)....how does that work then?

No doubt Google is a marvelous tool to have, but certainly isn't a substitute for information from someone with years of hands-on gardening experience.

Wartime Farm

As one with a bit of history himself, I'm also finding the content less credible each week too.

The Victorian Farm series was excellent because it was filmed at a farm (Acton Scott) where it was already a working museum farm, farmed by the owners who had owned the farm during the Victorian era.

Then came The Edwardian Farm series, which was full of errors. Unfortunately this Wartime Farm series has gone downhill since the second episode.

Re SCD & Sir Brucie....anyone notice how annoyed Len was getting with him tonight?

Think it has to be Jerry Hall for the big heave-ho this week.

Well to be honest I've never tried toilet roll tubes, Bev, though I do hear a lot of talk about the damp cardboard producing some rather yucky fungus.

There are several excellent products on the market the best being 'Root Trainers' or something like this http://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/150788055264?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&adtype=pla or these I prefer (virtually a black plastic bag) available from Eagle Sweet Peas.http://www.eaglesweetpeas.co.uk/gallery.php?g=8

You say you've restored back to 10/10, that's a couple of days ago.

You also say that that is about the time that the problem started. Maybe the update of 10/10 is the cause of the problem.

Good tinkin! Bluddy things just started blinking again...ah well!
