Thanks. The link is to the USA site, but there it is also shown in the UK one - except out of stock. There are similar ones though.
Thanks for that. Liberon (via Amazon) do very fine wire wool - I've sent for some. I'll see how I get on with that.I'll report back in due...
Many thanks for that advice: I don't know why I didn't think of it myself! I kept a pack of fine wire wool on the garage shelf for years, but,...
Thanks. Sadly, washing up liquid doesn't really do anything. I suspect that if the high power Karcher won't bring it off, simple household...
I decided it was time that I cleaned various garden plastic chairs, etc. Some are quite old.The Karcher has brought off 95% of the muck and...
I remember Port to Port and the Negotiable Cow. The ones I had had rather attractive dust jackets. I may look on used book search.
It must be 60 years since I read A.P. Herbert! I wonder if I still have the books hidden somewhere...

Ah, but is she right? My wife tells me all sorts of things, but...
Many thanks for the notes and the pics. I recognise many of the varieties! I am one of those naughty people who never label anything! Of...
Cold and wet is not the main enemy of hostas: heat and dry is. Generally, they flourish as far north as Russia.Here, in North Yorkshire, we...
100 @ £5 sounds good! I've plenty of pots and a couple of large bins full of compost.
Thanks Verdun - that is helpful! I'm glad I'm not unique in this operation. Since I could find no reference to this process elsewhere, I...
We have over 200 hostas in our garden. Some are now getting into large clumps and 'interfering' with each other. We had to move one or two...
I have applied glysophate to ivy in winter with great success - I've killed many square metres. I did it then to avoid the problem of killing...
I would agree with that provided there is a sufficiency of area on which you can paint the killer. If there is sufficient diameter, I would drill...
