There is one of those, just check the little box at the bottom left and you'll get emails if you've set it up on your settings 

Back to the top?

Hi, would it be possible to have a 'Back to the top' button at the foot of each thread, so that we can go back to the top quickly rather than endlessly scrolling back up?  Just a thought  Thanks.

This http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2538/beef-wellington is as good a recipe as any online - the proscuitto is a good idea as it helps prevent a soggy bottom

Pesky Slugs

Not all slugs are really bad news - we have lots of the big red or black ones (arion ater) which we find mating on the lawn on damp summer mornings  - they do little damage to plants, and eat other slugs so we leave them alone.

Good morning -    This is a rare two-day weekend for me, as my daughter and son in law are visiting my elderly parents today (they don't often get a day off together at the moment, so it's very good of them to use it for visiting) .  I have plans to do a proper lamb Biriyani and some accompanying veg dishes for our meal this evening - this might take most of the day to prepare

Fungus on juneberry tree

To try to prevent powdery mildew, gather up and burn affected leaves when they fall, and as the problem is often associated with plants under stress, try to ensure that the soil around the trees doesn't dry out.  Probably not a problem recently if you're in the UK.  There are some plants  that will get PM even in good conditions, one of my honesuckles succumbed last year although the others didn't  just one of those things.
