    Hi, God you are a suspicious lot, i don't have anything to do with that website, i just saw an ad for it and thought it was a good idea. I'm all for recycling at home and this is just the same thing, but for plants, ok it costs Ã?£10, but that doesn't buy much these days, a couple of chinese takeaways! I believe we all have to do our best to help save this planet for future generations, if it starts with reducing the carbon footprint, then at least it is a start. I wasn't telling you to look at the site, i just thought that you might be interested. Sorry. [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Gaynor49 - please accept our apologies, if it is as you say. We were a bit concerned because there have been some people in the past trying to sell rather than contribute. Give us some pictures of your garden and tell us a bit about it. We are all here to learn and to help.

    No apologies from me I am afraid. I am not being grumpy but I plead guilty to being suspicious. My brother in law (literally in law, an ex police superintendent) came round today with my sister for a cup of coffee. He agreed with me completely that people do not push something like this as hard as you have Gaynor unless they have an interest. He's done quite a bit on web selling techniques. �£10 is actually quite a lot if you just 'swap' a couple of things a year. Tell them to do what eBay does, charge by the transaction.

    I see that the website is registered to a sole trader in Dumfrieshire in Scotland, so it is certainly a commercial site
    It might be a coincidence that Gaynor comes from there ? [​IMG]

    Funnily enough Whis4ey that's what my B.in law found as well.

    'Wot me guv'nor. I'm nowhere near that website. It's all a coincidence.' The American expression is B.S.
