    I build anything, (well, my boss does, my brother!) he has done some garden landscaping, and I mainly do the labouring. We have built between us, some extensions, garden walls and general refurbishments of old houses ( like the one me and my girlfriend have bought)

    Who's Steven James? Is he a gardener?

      Lol Armani, I'm not that daft! Give me some credit!!

      Just remembered too, I used it on some plants in the house that we brought from our old place. My girlfiends late nan gave her 2 plants in pots years ago when she was at uni to brighten up her hall room, and she's had them for nearly 5 years. She's named them nan and grandad! Oh gawd, I can't say anything to her. Can I get away with telling her the move gave the plants a heart attack or something if they died? I think right now, I want to kill my brother

      Going to bed now, early start in the morning, the building trade eh?

      I'll post up tomorrow what my brother says, and put some pics of the garden on here too.

      Goodnight everyone, and thanks for the welcome and advice.

      :) Just confused as to whether its genuine :scratch:, I think the cruel one is Alfie's brother if he has indeed pursuaded him to cover his entire garden in the dreaded glyphosate..:hate-shocked:

      My apologies Alfie if you aren't winding us up but you're going to have some serious problems in your garden now if your not :frown:

      Sorry bilbo, I think this is genuine!!

      Alfie, I' wouldn't be happy at all with your brother, and I'd wait to see what he says. If he's winding you up, it's a very cruel joke as just google glyphosate on t'interweb.

      I do hope you didn't like your garden much and were hoping to change it anyway.?? Sorry but in a week or 2 you won't have anything other than decay everywhere.
